Woe to the crown of pride, to the drunkards of Ephraim, whose glorious beauty is a fading flower, which is on the head of the fat valleys of them that are overcome with wine!
Behold, the Lord hath a mighty and strong one, which as a tempest of hail and a destroying storm, as a flood of mighty waters overflowing, shall cast down to the earth with the hand.
The crown of pride, the drunkards of Ephraim, shall be trodden under feet;
and the glorious beauty, which is on the head of the fat valley, shall be a fading flower and as the early fruit before the summer, which when he that looketh upon it seeth; while it is yet in his hand he eateth it up.
In that day shall the Lord of hosts be for a crown of glory, and for a diadem of beauty unto the residue of His people,
and for a spirit of judgment to him that sitteth in judgment, and for strength to them that turn the battle to the gate.
But they also have erred through wine, and through strong drink are out of the way. The priest and the prophet have erred through strong drink; they are swallowed up by wine, they are out of the way through strong drink; they err in vision, they stumble in judgment.
For all tables are full of vomit and filthiness, so that there is no place clean.
“Whom shall he teach knowledge? And whom shall he make to understand doctrine? Them that are weaned from the milk and drawn from the breasts.
For precept must be upon precept, precept upon precept, line upon line, line upon line, here a little and there a little.”
For with stammering lips and another tongue will He speak to this people,
to whom He said, “This is the rest wherewith ye may cause the weary to rest,” and, “This is the refreshing” — yet they would not hear.
But the word of the Lord was unto them precept upon precept, precept upon precept, line upon line, line upon line, here a little and there a little, that they might go, and fall backward, and be broken and snared and taken.
Therefore hear the word of the Lord, ye scornful men, that rule this people which is in Jerusalem,
because ye have said, “We have made a covenant with death, and with hell are we in agreement. When the overflowing scourge shall pass through, it shall not come unto us; for we have made lies our refuge, and under falsehood have we hid ourselves.”
Therefore thus saith the Lord God: “Behold, I lay in Zion for a foundation a stone, a tried stone, a precious cornerstone, a sure foundation; he that believeth shall not make haste.
Judgment also will I lay to the line, and righteousness to the plummet; and the hail shall sweep away the refuge of lies, and the waters shall overflow the hiding place.
And your covenant with death shall be disannulled, and your agreement with hell shall not stand; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, then ye shall be trodden down by it.
From the time that it goeth forth it shall take you, for morning by morning shall it pass over, by day and by night; and it shall be a vexation only to understand the report.”
For the bed is shorter than that a man can stretch himself on it, and the covering narrower than that he can wrap himself in it.
For the Lord shall rise up as in Mount Perazim; He shall be wroth as in the Valley of Gibeon, that He may do His work, His strange work, and bring to pass His act, His strange act.
Now therefore be ye not mockers, lest your bonds be made strong; for I have heard from the Lord God of hosts a consuming even determined upon the whole earth.
Give ye ear and hear my voice; hearken and hear my speech.
Doth the plowman plow all day to sow? Doth he open and break the clods of his ground?
When he hath made plain the face thereof, doth he not cast abroad the dill and scatter the cummin, and cast in the principal wheat and the appointed barley and the rye in their place?
For his God doth instruct him to discretion, and doth teach him.
For the dill is not threshed with a threshing instrument, neither is a cart wheel turned about upon the cummin; but the dill is beaten out with a staff and the cummin with a rod.
Bread corn is beaten, because he will not ever be threshing it, nor break it with the wheel of his cart, nor bruise it with his horsemen.
This also cometh forth from the Lord of hosts, who is wonderful in counsel and excellent in working.
Woe to the crown of pride of the drunkards of Ephraim, and to the fading flower of his glorious beauty, which is on the head of the fat valley of them that are overcome with wine!
Behold, the Lord hath a mighty and strong one; as a tempest of hail, a destroying storm, as a tempest of mighty waters overflowing, will he cast down to the earth with the hand.
The crown of pride of the drunkards of Ephraim shall be trodden under foot:
and the fading flower of his glorious beauty, which is on the head of the fat valley, shall be as the first-ripe fig before the summer; which when he that looketh upon it seeth, while it is yet in his hand he eateth it up.
In that day will Jehovah of hosts become a crown of glory, and a diadem of beauty, unto the residue of his people;
and a spirit of justice to him that sitteth in judgment, and strength to them that turn back the battle at the gate.
And even these reel with wine, and stagger with strong drink; the priest and the prophet reel with strong drink, they are swallowed up of wine, they stagger with strong drink; they err in vision, they stumble in judgment.
For all tables are full of vomit and filthiness, so that there is no place clean.
Whom will he teach knowledge? and whom will he make to understand the message? them that are weaned from the milk, and drawn from the breasts?
For it is precept upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, there a little.
Nay, but by men of strange lips and with another tongue will he speak to this people;
to whom he said, This is the rest, give ye rest to him that is weary; and this is the refreshing: yet they would not hear.
Therefore shall the word of Jehovah be unto them precept upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, there a little; that they may go, and fall backward, and be broken, and snared, and taken.
Wherefore hear the word of Jehovah, ye scoffers, that rule this people that is in Jerusalem:
Because ye have said, We have made a covenant with death, and with Sheol are we at agreement; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, it shall not come unto us; for we have made lies our refuge, and under falsehood have we hid ourselves:
therefore thus saith the Lord Jehovah, Behold, I lay in Zion for a foundation a stone, a tried stone, a precious corner-stone of sure foundation: he that believeth shall not be in haste.
And I will make justice the line, and righteousness the plummet; and the hail shall sweep away the refuge of lies, and the waters shall overflow the hiding-place.
And your covenant with death shall be annulled, and your agreement with Sheol shall not stand; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, then ye shall be trodden down by it.
As often as it passeth through, it shall take you; for morning by morning shall it pass through, by day and by night: and it shall be nought but terror to understand the message.
For the bed is shorter than that a man can stretch himself on it; and the covering narrower than that he can wrap himself in it.
For Jehovah will rise up as in mount Perazim, he will be wroth as in the valley of Gibeon; that he may do his work, his strange work, and bring to pass his act, his strange act.
Now therefore be ye not scoffers, lest your bonds be made strong; for a decree of destruction have I heard from the Lord, Jehovah of hosts, upon the whole earth.
Give ye ear, and hear my voice; hearken, and hear my speech.
Doth he that ploweth to sow plow continually? doth he continually open and harrow his ground?
When he hath levelled the face thereof, doth he not cast abroad the fitches, and scatter the cummin, and put in the wheat in rows, and the barley in the appointed place, and the spelt in the border thereof?
For his God doth instruct him aright, and doth teach him.
For the fitches are not threshed with a sharp threshing instrument, neither is a cart wheel turned about upon the cummin; but the fitches are beaten out with a staff, and the cummin with a rod.
Bread grain is ground; for he will not be always threshing it: and though the wheel of his cart and his horses scatter it, he doth not grind it.
This also cometh forth from Jehovah of hosts, who is wonderful in counsel, and excellent in wisdom.
Woe (judgment is coming) to [Samaria] the splendid crown of the drunkards of Ephraim, And to the fading flower of its glorious beauty, Which is at the head of the rich valley Of those who are overcome with wine!
Listen carefully, the Lord has a strong and mighty agent [the Assyrian]; Like a tempest of hail, a disastrous storm, Like a tempest of mighty overflowing waters, He has cast it down to the earth with His hand.
The splendid crown of the drunkards of Ephraim is trampled by [the foreigners’] feet.
And the fading flower of its glorious beauty, Which is at the head of the rich valley, Will be like the early fig before the summer, Which one sees, And as soon as it is in his hand He [greedily] swallows it [and so will the Assyrians rapidly devour Samaria, Israel’s capital].
In that day the Lord of hosts will become a magnificent crown And a glorious diadem to the [converted] remnant of His people,
A spirit of justice for him who sits in judgment [administering the law], A strength to those who drive back the battle at the gate.
But even these reel with wine and stagger from strong drink: The priest and the prophet reel with strong drink; They are confused by wine, they stagger from strong drink; They reel while seeing visions, They stagger when pronouncing judgment.
For all the tables are full of filthy vomit, so that there is no place [that is clean.]
They say “To whom would He teach knowledge? And to whom would He explain the message? Those just weaned from milk? Those just taken from the breast?
“For He says, ‘Precept upon precept, precept upon precept, Rule upon rule, rule upon rule, Here a little, there a little.’”
Indeed, the Lord will teach this people [in a more humiliating way] By [men with] stammering lips and a foreign tongue,
He who said to them, “This is the place of quiet, give rest to the weary,” And, “This is the resting place,” yet they would not listen.
Therefore the word of the Lord to them will be [merely monotonous repetitions]: “Precept upon precept, precept upon precept, Rule upon rule, rule upon rule, Here a little, there a little.” That they may go and stumble backward, and be broken, ensnared, and taken captive.
Therefore, hear the word of the Lord, you arrogant men Who rule this people who are in Jerusalem!
Because you have said, “We have made a covenant with death, And with Sheol (the place of the dead) we have made an agreement, When the overwhelming scourge passes by, it will not reach us, For we have made lies our refuge and we have concealed ourselves in deception.”
Therefore the Lord God says this, “Listen carefully, I am laying in Zion a Stone, a tested Stone, A precious Cornerstone for the [secure] foundation, firmly placed. He who believes [who trusts in, relies on, and adheres to that Stone] will not be disturbed or give way [in sudden panic].
“I will make justice the measuring line And righteousness the mason’s level; Then hail will sweep away the refuge of lies And waters will flood over the secret [hiding] place.
“Your covenant with death will be annulled, And your agreement with Sheol (the place of the dead) will not stand; When the overwhelming scourge passes through, Then you will become its trampling ground.
“As often as it passes through, it will seize you; For morning after morning it will pass through, by day and by night, And it will be sheer terror to understand what it means.”
For the bed is too short to stretch out on, And the blanket is too narrow to wrap around oneself [and likewise all their preparations are inadequate].
For the Lord will rise up as at Mount Perazim, He will be stirred up as in the Valley of Gibeon, To do His work, His unusual and incredible work, And to accomplish His work, His extraordinary work.
Now do not carry on as scoffers, Or the bands which bind you will be made stronger; For I have heard from the Lord God of hosts [a decree] Of decisive destruction on all the earth.
Listen and hear my voice; Listen carefully and hear my words.
Does the farmer plow all day to plant seed? Does he continually dig furrows and harrow his ground [after it is prepared]?
When he has leveled its surface, Does he not sow [the seed of] dill and scatter cumin, And plant wheat in rows, And barley in its [intended] place and rye within its border?
For his God instructs [him correctly] and teaches him properly.
For dill is not threshed with a sharp threshing sledge, Nor is a cartwheel rolled over cumin; But dill is beaten out with a staff, and cumin with a rod.
Bread grain is crushed fine, Indeed, the farmer does not continue to thresh it forever. Because the wheel of his cart and his horses eventually damage it, He does not thresh it longer.
This also comes from the Lord of hosts, Who has made His counsel wonderful and His wisdom great.
Woe to [Samaria] the crown of pride of the drunkards of Ephraim [the ten tribes], and to the fading flower of its glorious beauty, which is on the head of the rich valley of those overcome and smitten down with wine!
Behold, the Lord has a strong and mighty one [the Assyrian]; like a tempest of hail, a destroying storm, like a flood of mighty overflowing waters, he will cast it down to the earth with violent hand.
With [alien] feet [Samaria] the proud crown of the drunkards of Ephraim will be trodden down.
And the fading flower of its glorious beauty, which is on the head of the rich valley, will be like the early fig before the fruit harvest, which, when anyone sees it, he snatches and eats it up greedily at once. [So in an amazingly short time will the Assyrians devour Samaria, Israel’s capital.]
[But] in that [future Messianic] day the Lord of hosts shall become a crown of glory and a diadem of beauty to the [converted] remnant of His people,
And a spirit of justice to him who sits in judgment and administers the law, and strength to those who turn back the battle at the gate.
But even these reel from wine and stagger from strong drink: the priest and the prophet reel from strong drink; they are confused from wine, they stagger and are gone astray through strong drink; they err in vision, they stumble when pronouncing judgment.
For all the tables are full of filthy vomit, so that there is no place that is clean.
To whom will He teach knowledge? [Ask the drunkards.] And whom will He make to understand the message? Those who are babies, just weaned from the milk and taken from the breasts? [Is that what He thinks we are?]
For it is [His prophets repeating over and over]: precept upon precept, precept upon precept, rule upon rule, rule upon rule; here a little, there a little.
No, but [the Lord will teach the rebels in a more humiliating way] by men with stammering lips and another tongue will He speak to this people [says Isaiah, and teach them His lessons].
To these [complaining Jews the Lord] had said, This is the true rest [the way to true comfort and happiness] that you shall give to the weary, and, This is the [true] refreshing—yet they would not listen [to His teaching].
Therefore the word of the Lord will be to them [merely monotonous repeatings of]: precept upon precept, precept upon precept, rule upon rule, rule upon rule; here a little, there a little—that they may go and fall backward, and be broken and snared and taken.
Therefore hear the word of the Lord, you scoffers who rule this people in Jerusalem!
Because you have said, We have made a covenant with death, and with Sheol (the place of the dead) we have an agreement—when the overflowing scourge passes through, it will not come to us, for we have made lies our refuge, and in falsehood we have taken shelter.
Therefore thus says the Lord God, Behold, I am laying in Zion for a foundation a Stone, a tested Stone, a precious Cornerstone of sure foundation; he who believes (trusts in, relies on, and adheres to that Stone) will not be ashamed or give way or hasten away [in sudden panic].
I will make justice the measuring line and righteousness the plummet; and hail will sweep away the refuge of lies, and waters will overwhelm the hiding place (the shelter).
And your covenant with death shall be annulled, and your agreement with Sheol (the place of the dead) shall not stand; when the overwhelming scourge passes through, then you will be trodden down by it.
As often as it passes through, it [the enemy’s scourge] will take you; for morning by morning will it pass through, by day and by night. And it will be utter terror merely to hear and comprehend the report and the message of it [but only hard treatment and dispersion will make you understand God’s instruction].
For [they will find that] the bed is too short for a man to stretch himself on and the covering too narrow for him to wrap himself in. [All their sources of confidence will fail them.]
For the Lord will rise up as on Mount Perazim, He will be wrathful as in the Valley of Gibeon, that He may do His work, His strange work, and bring to pass His act, His strange act.
Now therefore do not be scoffers, lest the bands which bind you be made strong; for a decree of destruction have I heard from the Lord God of hosts upon the whole land and the whole earth.
Give ear and hear my [Isaiah’s] voice; listen and hear my words.
Does he who plows for sowing plow continually? Does he continue to plow and harrow the ground after it is smooth?
When he has leveled its surface, does he not cast abroad [the seed of] dill or fennel and scatter cummin [a seasoning], and put the wheat in rows, and barley in its intended place, and spelt [an inferior kind of wheat] as the border?
[And he trains each of them correctly] for his God instructs him correctly and teaches him.
For dill is not threshed with a sharp threshing instrument, nor is a cartwheel rolled over cummin; but dill is beaten off with a staff, and cummin with a rod [by hand].
Does one crush bread grain? No, he does not thresh it continuously. But when he has driven his cartwheel and his horses over it, he scatters it [tossing it up to the wind] without having crushed it.
This also comes from the Lord of hosts, Who is wonderful in counsel [and] excellent in wisdom and effectual working.
Woe to the crown of pride, to the drunkards of Ephraim, whose glorious beauty is a fading flower, which are on the head of the fat valleys of them that are overcome with wine!
Behold, the Lord hath a mighty and strong one, which as a tempest of hail and a destroying storm, as a flood of mighty waters overflowing, shall cast down to the earth with the hand.
The crown of pride, the drunkards of Ephraim, shall be trodden under feet:
And the glorious beauty, which is on the head of the fat valley, shall be a fading flower, and as the hasty fruit before the summer; which when he that looketh upon it seeth, while it is yet in his hand he eateth it up.
¶ In that day shall the Lord of hosts be for a crown of glory, and for a diadem of beauty, unto the residue of his people,
And for a spirit of judgment to him that sitteth in judgment, and for strength to them that turn the battle to the gate.
¶ But they also have erred through wine, and through strong drink are out of the way; the priest and the prophet have erred through strong drink, they are swallowed up of wine, they are out of the way through strong drink; they err in vision, they stumble in judgment.
For all tables are full of vomit and filthiness, so that there is no place clean.
¶ Whom shall he teach knowledge? and whom shall he make to understand doctrine? them that are weaned from the milk, and drawn from the breasts.
For precept must be upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little:
For with stammering lips and another tongue will he speak to this people.
To whom he said, This is the rest wherewith ye may cause the weary to rest; and this is the refreshing: yet they would not hear.
But the word of the Lord was unto them precept upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little; that they might go, and fall backward, and be broken, and snared, and taken.
¶ Wherefore hear the word of the Lord, ye scornful men, that rule this people which is in Jerusalem.
Because ye have said, We have made a covenant with death, and with hell are we at agreement; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, it shall not come unto us: for we have made lies our refuge, and under falsehood have we hid ourselves:
¶ Therefore thus saith the Lord God, Behold, I lay in Zion for a foundation a stone, a tried stone, a precious corner stone, a sure foundation: he that believeth shall not make haste.
Judgment also will I lay to the line, and righteousness to the plummet: and the hail shall sweep away the refuge of lies, and the waters shall overflow the hiding place.
¶ And your covenant with death shall be disannulled, and your agreement with hell shall not stand; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, then ye shall be trodden down by it.
From the time that it goeth forth it shall take you: for morning by morning shall it pass over, by day and by night: and it shall be a vexation only to understand the report.

For the Lord shall rise up as in mount Perazim, he shall be wroth as in the valley of Gibeon, that he may do his work, his strange work; and bring to pass his act, his strange act.
Now therefore be ye not mockers, lest your bands be made strong: for I have heard from the Lord God of hosts a consumption, even determined upon the whole earth.
¶ Give ye ear, and hear my voice; hearken, and hear my speech.
Doth the plowman plow all day to sow? doth he open and break the clods of his ground?
When he hath made plain the face thereof, doth he not cast abroad the fitches, and scatter the cummin, and cast in the principal wheat and the appointed barley and the rie in their place?
For his God doth instruct him to discretion, and doth teach him.
For the fitches are not threshed with a threshing instrument, neither is a cart wheel turned about upon the cummin; but the fitches are beaten out with a staff, and the cummin with a rod.
Bread corn is bruised; because he will not ever be threshing it, nor break it with the wheel of his cart, nor bruise it with his horsemen.
This also cometh forth from the Lord of hosts, which is wonderful in counsel, and excellent in working.
Woe to the majestic crown of Ephraim’s drunkards, and to the fading flower of its beautiful splendor, which is on the summit above the rich valley. Woe to those overcome with wine.
Look, the Lord has a strong and mighty one— like a devastating hail storm, like a storm with strong flooding water. He will bring it across the land with his hand.
The majestic crown of Ephraim’s drunkards will be trampled underfoot.
The fading flower of his beautiful splendor, which is on the summit above the rich valley, will be like a ripe fig before the summer harvest. Whoever sees it will swallow it while it is still in his hand.
On that day the Lord of Armies will become a crown of beauty and a diadem of splendor to the remnant of his people,
a spirit of justice to the one who sits in judgment, and strength to those who repel attacks at the city gate.
Even these stagger because of wine and stumble under the influence of beer: Priest and prophet stagger because of beer. They are confused by wine. They stumble because of beer. They are muddled in their visions. They stumble in their judgments.
Indeed, all their tables are covered with vomit; there is no place without a stench.
Who is he trying to teach? Who is he trying to instruct? Infants just weaned from milk? Babies removed from the breast?
“Law after law, law after law, line after line, line after line, a little here, a little there.”
For he will speak to this people with stammering speech and in a foreign language.
He had said to them, “This is the place of rest; let the weary rest; this is the place of repose.” But they would not listen.
The word of the Lord will come to them: “Law after law, law after law, line after line, line after line, a little here, a little there,” so they go stumbling backward, to be broken, trapped, and captured.
Therefore hear the word of the Lord, you scoffers who rule this people in Jerusalem.
For you said, “We have made a covenant with Death, and we have an agreement with Sheol; when the overwhelming catastrophe passes through, it will not touch us, because we have made falsehood our refuge and have hidden behind treachery.”
Therefore the Lord God said: “Look, I have laid a stone in Zion, a tested stone, a precious cornerstone, a sure foundation; the one who believes will be unshakable.
And I will make justice the measuring line and righteousness the mason’s level.” Hail will sweep away the false refuge, and water will flood your hiding place.
Your covenant with Death will be dissolved, and your agreement with Sheol will not last. When the overwhelming catastrophe passes through, you will be trampled.
Every time it passes through, it will carry you away; it will pass through every morning— every day and every night. Only terror will cause you to understand the message.
Indeed, the bed is too short to stretch out on, and its cover too small to wrap up in.
For the Lord will rise up as he did at Mount Perazim. He will rise in wrath, as at the Valley of Gibeon, to do his work, his unexpected work, and to perform his task, his unfamiliar task.
So now, do not scoff, or your shackles will become stronger. Indeed, I have heard from the Lord God of Armies a decree of destruction for the whole land.
Listen and hear my voice. Pay attention and hear what I say.
Does the plowman plow every day to plant seed? Does he continuously break up and cultivate the soil?
When he has leveled its surface, does he not then scatter black cumin and sow cumin? He plants wheat in rows and barley in plots, with spelt as their border.
His God teaches him order; he instructs him.
Certainly black cumin is not threshed with a threshing board, and a cart wheel is not rolled over the cumin. But black cumin is beaten out with a stick, and cumin with a rod.
Bread grain is crushed, but is not threshed endlessly. Though the wheel of the farmer’s cart rumbles, his horses do not crush it.
This also comes from the Lord of Armies. He gives wondrous advice; he gives great wisdom.
Woe to the majestic crown of Ephraim’s drunkards, and to the fading flower of its beautiful splendour, which is on the summit above the rich valley. Woe to those overcome with wine.
Look, the Lord has a strong and mighty one – like a devastating hailstorm, like a storm with strong flooding water. He will bring it across the land with his hand.
The majestic crown of Ephraim’s drunkards will be trampled underfoot.
The fading flower of his beautiful splendour, which is on the summit above the rich valley, will be like a ripe fig before the summer harvest. Whoever sees it will swallow it while it is still in his hand.
On that day the Lord of Armies will become a crown of beauty and a diadem of splendour to the remnant of his people,

Oh, the majestic garland of Ephraim’s drunks and the fading flower of its splendid beauty on the head that flows with perfume of those hammered with wine.
Look! The Lord has someone who is powerful and strong; like a hailstorm, a disastrous tempest, like a downpour of mighty, overflowing waters, he can level them to the ground with his hand.
The majestic garland of Ephraim’s drunks will be trampled underfoot.
The withered flower, which is a thing of beauty as it sits on the head of those bloated with fat, will be like an early fig before the summer harvest: whoever sees it swallows it as soon as it is in hand.
On that day, the Lord of heavenly forces will be a splendid garland and a beautiful wreath for the people who survive,
and a spirit of justice for the one who sits in judgment, and a strength for those who repel the assault at the gate.
These also stagger from wine and stumble from beer: priest and prophet stagger from beer; they are confused by wine; they stray on account of beer; they err when receiving visions; they stumble when making judgments.
All the tables are covered with vomit; filth overruns the place.
To whom will God teach knowledge? To whom will he explain the message? To those just weaned from milk? To those who have hardly outgrown the breast?
It is “tsav letsav, tsav letsav; qav leqav, qav leqav,” a little of this, a little of that.
With derisive speech and a foreign tongue, he will speak to this people.
He has said to them, “This is the place of rest; give rest to the weary; this is the place of repose”; but they refused to listen.
So the Lord’s word will be for them: “tsav letsav, tsav letsav; qav leqav, qav leqav,” a little of this, a little of that. So that they will go and stagger backward, they will be broken, snared, and captured.
Therefore, hear the Lord’s word, you scoffers who rule this people in Jerusalem.
You said, “We’ve cut a deal with death; with the underworld we made a pact. When the overflowing flood passes through, it won’t reach us; for we have made lies our hiding place, and in falsehood we take shelter.”
Therefore, the Lord God says: Look! I’m laying in Zion a stone, a tested stone, a valuable cornerstone, a sure foundation: the one who trusts won’t tremble.
I will make justice the measuring line and righteousness the plumb line. But hail will sweep away the hiding place of lies, and water will overflow the shelter.
Your deal with death will be dissolved, and your pact with the grave won’t stand. The rushing flood: when it passes through, you will be annihilated by it.
Every time it passes through it will take you, for morning by morning it will pass, by day and by night. It will be nothing but terror to understand the message.
The bed is too short to stretch out, and the shroud is too narrow to cover oneself.
Just as on Mount Perazim, the Lord will rise up; as in the Gibeon Valley he will rage to do his deed—strange is his deed!— And to work his work—foreign is his work!
So now stop your scoffing, or your chains will be tightened, because destruction has been ordered—I have heard it!— by the Lord God of heavenly forces against the whole land.
Listen and hear my voice; pay attention and hear my word:
Does the plowman plow without stopping for planting, opening and harrowing their ground?
When he has smoothed its surface, doesn’t he scatter fennel, and sow cumin, and plant wheat and barley in their places, and spelt as a border?
They are properly ordered; their God directs them.
Fennel isn’t threshed with a threshing sledge, nor is a cart wheel rolled over cumin, but fennel is beaten with a staff, and cumin with a rod.
Bread grain is crushed, but the thresher doesn’t thresh it forever. He drives the cart wheel over it; he spreads it out but doesn’t crush it.
This also comes from the Lord of heavenly forces, who gives wondrous counsel and increases wisdom.
Woe to the haughty crown of Efrayim’s drunks, to the fading flower of its proud splendor, located at the head of the rich valley belonging to people overcome by wine!
Adonai has someone strong and powerful. He comes like a hailstorm, a destructive tempest, like a flood of water, rushing, overwhelming; with his hand he hurls them to the ground.
The haughty crown of Efrayim’s drunks is trampled underfoot;
and the fading flower of its proud splendor, located at the head of the rich valley, is like the first ripe fig of summer — whoever sees it picks and eats it.
On that day, Adonai-Tzva’ot will be a glorious crown, a brilliant diadem for the remnant of his people.
He will also be a spirit of justice for whoever sits as a judge, and a source of strength for those repelling enemy attacks at the gate.
But there are others reeling from wine, staggering about because of strong liquor; cohen and prophet reel from strong liquor, they are confused by wine. Led astray by strong liquor, they err in their visions and stumble when judging.
All tables are covered with vomit and feces, not a single place is clean.
Can no one be taught anything? Can no one understand the message? Must one teach barely weaned toddlers, babies just taken from the breast,
so that [one has to use nursery rhymes]? — Tzav la-tzav, tzav la-tzav, kav la-kav, kav la-kav z‘eir sham, z‘eir sham [Precept by precept, precept by precept, line by line, line by line, a little here, a little there].
So with stammering lips, in a foreign accent, [Adonai] will speak to this people.
He once told this people, “It’s time to rest, the exhausted can rest, now you can relax” — but they wouldn’t listen.
So now the word of Adonai for them comes “precept by precept, precept by precept, line by line, line by line, a little here, a little there,” so that when they walk, they stumble backward, and are broken, trapped and captured!
So listen to the word of Adonai, you scoffers, composing taunts for this people in Yerushalayim:
Because you said, “We made a covenant with death, we made a contract with Sh’ol. When the raging flood passes through, it will not touch us. For we have made lies our refuge and hid ourselves in falsehoods” —
therefore here is what Adonai Elohim says: “Look, I am laying in Tziyon a tested stone, a costly cornerstone, a firm foundation-stone; he who trusts will not rush here and there.
I will make justice the plumbline and righteousness the plumb-bob; hail will sweep away the refuge of lies, water will overflow the hiding place,
your covenant with death will be annulled, and your contract with Sh’ol will not stand. When the raging flood passes through, you will be trampled down by it.
As often as it passes through, it will take you, for it will pass through every morning, day after day, night after night; understanding the message will be sheer terror.”
For, [as the saying goes,] “The bed is too short for a person to stretch, and the blanket too narrow [to protect him from cold] even if he crams himself in.”
For Adonai will arise, as at Mount P’ratzim, and storm with rage, as in the Giv‘on Valley; so he can do his deed, his strange deed, and perform his task, his alien task.
Therefore, now, stop your scoffing, or your bonds will be further tightened; for I have heard from Adonai Elohim-Tzva’ot that destruction is decreed for the whole land.
Listen and hear my voice; pay attention, and hear what I say:
Does a farmer sowing keep plowing forever? Does he never stop breaking up and harrowing his land?
No — when he finishes levelling it, he scatters his dill-seed, sows his cumin, puts wheat in rows, barley where it belongs, and plants buckwheat around the edges;
because his God has taught him this, has given him instruction.
Dill must not be threshed with a sledge or cartwheels driven over cumin; rather, dill one beats with a stick and cumin with a flail.
When crushing grain for bread, one doesn’t thresh it forever; one drives the horse and cart wheels over it but doesn’t crush it to powder.
This too comes from Adonai-Tzva’ot — his counsel is wonderful, his wisdom great.
The city of Samaria above a fertile valley is in for trouble! Its leaders are drunkards, who stuff themselves with food and wine. But they will be like flowers that dry up and wilt.
Only the Lord is strong and powerful! His mighty hand will strike them down with the force of a hailstorm or a mighty whirlwind or an overwhelming flood.
Every drunkard in Ephraim takes pride in Samaria, but it will be crushed.
Samaria above a fertile valley will quickly lose its glory. It will be gobbled up like the first ripe fig at harvest season.
When this time comes, the Lord All-Powerful will be a glorious crown for his people who survive.
He will see that justice rules and that his people are able to defend their cities.
Priests and prophets stumble because they are drunk. Their minds are too confused to receive God's messages or give honest decisions.
Their tables are covered, completely covered, with their stinking vomit.
You drunken leaders are like babies! How can you possibly understand or teach the Lord's message?
You don't even listen— all you hear is senseless sound after senseless sound.
So, the Lord will speak to his people in strange sounds and foreign languages.
He promised you perfect peace and rest, but you refused to listen.
Now his message to you will be senseless sound after senseless sound. Then you will fall backwards, injured and trapped.
You rulers of Jerusalem do nothing but sneer; now you must listen to what the Lord says.
Do you think you have an agreement with death and the world of the dead? Why do you trust in your lies to keep you safe from danger and the mighty flood?
And so the Lord says, “I'm laying a firm foundation for the city of Zion. It's a valuable cornerstone proven to be trustworthy; no one who trusts it will ever be disappointed.
Justice and fairness will be the measuring lines that help me build.” Hailstones and floods will destroy and wash away your shelter of lies.
Your agreement with death and the world of the dead will be broken. Then angry, roaring waves will sweep over you.
Morning, noon, and night an overwhelming flood will wash you away. The terrible things that happen will teach you this lesson:
Your bed is too short, your blanket too skimpy.
The Lord will fiercely attack as he did at Mount Perazim and in Gibeon Valley. But this time the Lord will do something surprising, not what you expect.
So you had better stop sneering or you will be in worse shape than ever before. I heard the Lord All-Powerful threaten the whole country with destruction.
Pay close attention to what I am saying.
Farmers don't just plow and break up the ground.
When a field is ready, they scatter the seeds of dill and cumin; they plant the seeds of wheat and barley in the proper places and sow other grains around the edges.
They learn this from their God.
After dill and cumin have been harvested, the stalks are pounded, not run over with a wagon.
Wheat and barley are pounded, but not beaten to pulp; they are run over with a wagon, but not ground to dust.
This wonderful knowledge comes from the Lord All-Powerful, who has such great wisdom.
Woe to the crown of pride of the drunkards of Ephraim, and to the fading flower of his glorious adornment, which is on the head of the fat valley of them that are overcome with wine.
Behold, the Lord hath a mighty and strong one, as a storm of hail [and] a destroying tempest; as a storm of mighty waters overflowing, shall he cast down to the earth with might.
The crown of pride of the drunkards of Ephraim shall be trodden under feet;
and the fading flower of his glorious adornment which is on the head of the fat valley shall be like an early fig before the summer: as soon as he that seeth it perceiveth it, scarcely is it in his hand, he swalloweth it down.
In that day will Jehovah of hosts be for a crown of glory, and for a diadem of beauty, unto the remnant of his people;
and for a spirit of judgment to him that sitteth in judgment, and for strength to them that turn the battle to the gate.
But these also have erred through wine, and through strong drink are they gone astray. The priest and the prophet have erred through strong drink; they are overpowered by wine, they are gone astray through strong drink; they have erred in vision, they have stumbled [in] judgment.
For all tables are full of filthy vomit, so that there is no [more] place.
Whom shall he teach knowledge? and whom shall he make to understand the report? Them that are weaned from the milk, withdrawn from the breasts?
For [it is] precept upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, there a little. …
For with stammering lips and a strange tongue will he speak to this people;
to whom he said, This is the rest: cause the weary to rest; and this is the refreshing. But they would not hear.
And the word of Jehovah was unto them precept upon precept, precept upon precept, line upon line, line upon line, here a little, there a little: that they might go, and fall backward, and be broken, and snared, and taken.
Therefore hear the word of Jehovah, ye scornful men, that rule this people which is in Jerusalem.
For ye have said, We have made a covenant with death, and with Sheol have we made an agreement; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, it shall not come unto us; for we have made lies our refuge, and under falsehood have we hid ourselves.
Therefore thus saith the Lord Jehovah: Behold, I lay for foundation in Zion a stone, a tried stone, a precious corner-stone, a sure foundation: he that trusteth shall not make haste.
And I will appoint judgment for a line, and righteousness for a plummet; and the hail shall sweep away the refuge of lies, and the waters shall overflow the hiding-place.
And your covenant with death shall be annulled, and your agreement with Sheol shall not stand; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, ye shall be trodden down by it.
As it passeth through it shall take you; for morning by morning shall it pass through, by day and by night; and it shall be terror only to understand the report.
For the bed is too short to stretch oneself on, and the covering too narrow when he would wrap himself in it.
For Jehovah will rise up as on mount Perazim, he will be moved with anger as in the valley of Gibeon; that he may do his work, his strange work, and perform his act, his unwonted act.
Now therefore be ye not scorners, lest your bonds be made strong; for I have heard from the Lord Jehovah of hosts a consumption, and [one] determined, upon the whole land.
Give ear, and hear my voice; hearken, and hear my speech.
Doth the ploughman plough all day to sow? Is he [all day] opening and breaking the clods of his land?
Doth he not, when he hath levelled the face thereof, cast abroad dill, and scatter cummin, and set the wheat in rows, and the barley in an appointed place, and the rye in its border?
His God doth instruct him in [his] judgment, he doth teach him.
For the dill is not threshed with a threshing instrument, neither is a cart-wheel turned about upon the cummin; but dill is beaten out with a staff, and cummin with a rod.
Bread [corn] is crushed, because he will not ever be threshing it; and if he drove the wheels of his cart and his horses [over it], he would not crush it.
This also cometh forth from Jehovah of hosts; he is wonderful in counsel, great in wisdom.
Woe to the crown of pride, to the drunkards of Ephraim, and to the fading flower the glory of his joy, who were on the head of the fat valley, staggering with wine.
Behold the Lord is mighty and strong, as a storm of hail: a destroying whirlwind, as the violence of many waters overflowing, and sent forth upon a spacious land.
The crown of pride of the drunkards of Ephraim shall be trodden under feet.
And the fading flower the glory of his joy, who is on the head of the fat valley, shall be as a hasty fruit before the ripeness of autumn: which when he that seeth it shall behold, as soon as he taketh it in his hand, he will eat it up.
In that day the Lord of hosts shall be a crown of glory, and a garland of joy to the residue of his people:
And a spirit of judgment to him that sitteth in judgment, and strength to them that return out of the battle to the gate.
But these also have been ignorant through wine, and through drunkenness have erred: the priest and the prophet have been ignorant through drunkenness, they are swallowed up with wine, they have gone astray in drunkenness, they have not known him that seeth, they have been ignorant of judgment.
For all tables were full of vomit and filth, so that there was no more place.
Whom shall he teach knowledge? and whom shall he make to understand the hearing? them that are weaned from the milk, that are drawn away from the breasts.
For command, command again; command, command again; expect, expect again; expect, expect again: a little there, a little there.
For with the speech of lips, and with another tongue he will speak to this people.
To whom he said: This is my rest, refresh the weary, and this is my refreshing: and they would not hear.
And the word of the Lord shall be to them: Command, command again; command, command again: expect, expect again; expect, expect again: a little there, a little there: that they may go, and fall backward, and be broken, and snared, and taken.
Wherefore hear the word of the Lord, ye scornful men, who rule over my people that is in Jerusalem.
For you have said: We have entered into a league with death, and we have made a covenant with hell. When the overflowing scourge shall pass through, it shall not come upon us: for we have placed our hope in lies, and by falsehood we are protected.
Therefore thus saith the Lord God: Behold I will lay a stone in the foundations of Sion, a tried stone, a corner stone, a precious stone, founded in the foundation. He that believeth, let him not hasten.
And I will set judgment in weight, and justice in measure: and hail shall overturn the hope of falsehood: and waters shall overflow its protection.
And Sour league with death shall be abolished, and your covenant with hell shall not stand: when the overflowing scourge shall pass, you shall be trodden down by it.
Whensoever it shall pass through, it shall take you away: because in the morning early it shall pass through, in the day and in the night, and vexation alone shall make you understand what you hear.
For the bed is straitened, so that one must fall out, and a short covering cannot cover both.
For the Lord shall stand up as in the mountain of divisions: he shall be angry as in the valley which is in Gabaon: that he may do his work, his strange work: that he may perform his work, his work is strange to him.
And now do not mock, lest your bonds be tied strait. For I have heard of the Lord the God of hosts a consumption and a cutting short upon all the earth.
Give ear, and hear my voice, hearken, and hear my speech.
Shall the ploughman plough all the day to sow, shall he open and harrow his ground?
Will he not, when he hath made plain the surface thereof, sow gith, and scatter cummin, and put wheat in order, and barley, and millet, and vetches in their bounds?
For he will instruct him in judgment: his God will teach him.
For gith shall not be thrashed with saws, neither shall the cart wheel turn about upon cummin: but gith shall be beaten out with a rod, and cummin with a staff.
But bread corn shall be broken small: but the thrasher shall not thrash it for ever, neither shall the cart wheel hurt it, nor break it with its teeth.
This also is come forth from the Lord God of hosts, to make his counsel wonderful, and magnify justice.
Look at Samaria! The drunks of Ephraim are proud of that city. It sits on a hill with a rich valley around it. The Samarians think their city is a beautiful crown of flowers. But they are drunk with wine, and this “beautiful crown” is just a dying plant.
Look, the Lord has someone who is strong and brave. He will come into the country like a storm of hail and rain. Like a powerful river of water flooding the country, he will throw that crown down to the ground.
The drunks of Ephraim are proud of their beautiful crown, but that city will be trampled down.
That city sits on a hill with a rich valley around it. But that beautiful crown of flowers is just a dying plant. It will be like the first figs of summer. As soon as someone sees a ripe one, they pick it and eat it.
At that time the Lord All-Powerful will become the “Beautiful Crown.” He will be the “Wonderful Crown of Flowers” for his people who are left.
Then he will give wisdom to the judges who rule his people. He will give strength to the people who are in battles at the city gates.
But now those leaders are drunk. The priests and prophets are all drunk with wine and beer. They stumble and fall down. The prophets are drunk when they see their dreams. The judges are drunk when they make their decisions.
Every table is covered with vomit. There is not a clean place anywhere.
The people say, “Who does he think he is trying to teach and explain his message to? Does he think we are babies who were at their mother’s breast only a very short time ago?
He speaks to us as though we were babies: “Saw lasaw saw lasaw Qaw laqaw qaw laqaw Ze’er sham ze’er sham.”
So God will use this strange way of talking, and he will use other languages to speak to these people.
In the past he spoke to them and said, “Here is a resting place. Let those who are tired come and rest. This is the place of peace.” But they would not listen to him.
So the Lord’s words will be senseless sounds to them: “Saw lasaw saw lasaw. Qaw laqaw qaw laqaw. Ze’er sham ze’er sham.” When the people try to walk, they will fall backwards. They will be defeated, trapped, and captured.
You leaders in Jerusalem should listen to the Lord’s message, but now you refuse to listen to him.
You have said, “We have made an agreement with death. We have a contract with death. So we will not be punished. Punishment will pass us without hurting us. We will hide behind our tricks and lies.”
Because of these things, the Lord God says, “I will put a rock—a cornerstone—in the ground in Zion. This will be a very precious stone. Everything will be built on this very important rock. Anyone who trusts in that rock will not be disappointed.
“Workers use a string and weight to show their work is straight and true. I will use justice as the string and goodness as the weight when I lay that foundation. But your safe places were built on lies. So they will be destroyed and washed away when the troubles come against you like hail storms and floods.
Your agreement with death will be erased. Your contract with Sheol will not help you. “Someone will come and punish you. He will make you like the dirt he walks on.
He will come and take you away. Your punishment will be terrible. Your punishment will come early in the morning, and it will continue late into the night. “Then you will understand this story:
A man tried to sleep on a bed that was too short for him. He had a blanket that was not wide enough to cover him. The bed and blanket were useless, and so were your agreements.”
The Lord will fight as he did at Mount Perazim. He will be angry as he was in Gibeon Valley. He will do what he must do. It will be what some stranger should do, but he will finish his work. Yes, this is a stranger’s job.
Now don’t complain about these things. If you fight against them, you will only tighten the ropes around you. The words I heard will not change. They came from the Lord God All-Powerful, the ruler of all the earth, and these things will be done.
Listen closely to the message I am telling you.
Does a farmer plow his field all the time? No, he doesn’t work the soil all the time.
A farmer prepares the ground, and then he plants the seed. He plants different kinds of seeds different ways. He scatters dill seeds, he throws cumin seeds on the ground, and he plants wheat in rows. A farmer plants barley in its special place, and he plants spelt seeds at the edge of his field.
Our God is using this to teach you a lesson. This example shows us that God is fair when he punishes his people.
Does a farmer use large boards with sharp teeth to crush dill seeds? No, and he doesn’t use a wagon to crush cumin seeds. A farmer uses a small stick to break the hulls from these seeds of grain.
People grind grain to make flour, but they don’t grind it forever. As God does in punishing people, a worker might drive his wagon over the grain to remove the hulls, but he does not allow the horses to crush it.
This lesson comes from the Lord All-Powerful, who gives wonderful advice. He is very wise.
It will be very bad for Ephraim's beautiful city, Samaria! The people who live there drink too much wine and they become drunk. They are proud of their great city. It is on a hill above a valley where many good things grow. It is like a beautiful flower, but it will be beautiful no more and it will die.
Look! The Lord God is sending a strong and powerful army to attack it. It comes like a strong storm of ice. Its wind destroys everything. It is like rain that pours down and causes a flood. He will knock down Ephraim's great city to the ground with his great power!
The drunk people of Samaria think that their city is great. But their enemies will knock it down and walk all over it.
The city is like a beautiful flower that will soon die. It is on a hill above a valley where many good things grow. But it will be like a fig on a tree. It is ready to eat before the harvest time. When someone sees it, he will quickly pick it. And he will eat it!
At that time. the Lord Almighty will be a great leader of his people. He will be like a beautiful crown for his people who still remain alive.
He will help judges to decide what is right. He will give strength to the people who keep the city safe from those who attack it.
But now wine causes the leaders in Ephraim to become drunk. They cannot walk in a straight line because they drink too much beer. Beer causes the priests and the prophets to fall over. Wine confuses their minds. When they see visions, they cannot understand them. When they judge people, they cannot decide what is right.
They are sick over all their tables. Everywhere is covered with dirt.
They say, ‘Why does the Lord try to teach us like that? Who does he think that we are? He speaks to us as if we are babies! He thinks that we have just left our mother's breast!
He teaches us one rule at a time, one line at a time. He says it several times, a little bit here, a little bit there.’
So now the Lord will use foreign enemies to speak to these people. He will speak to them in a strange language.
In the past, he said to them, ‘This is a place where you can rest when you are tired. It is a place where you can be safe.’ But his people refused to listen.
So the Lord's message will seem to them like, ‘One rule at a time, one line at a time, a little bit here, a little bit there.’ So as they try to move forward, they will fall over. An enemy will hurt them, and he will catch them in a trap.
So listen to the Lord's message, you leaders in Jerusalem who rule these people. Do not laugh at what the Lord is doing.
You boast, ‘We have made a covenant with death. Yes, we have made an agreement with Sheol. When trouble comes to our city like a deep flood of water, we will be safe. We trust in our lies to keep us safe.’
So the Almighty Lord says this: ‘Look! I am putting a special stone in Zion. It is a valuable stone, because it makes a strong foundation at the corner of my building. Anyone who trusts in that foundation will never be disappointed.
Justice and righteousness will make that foundation strong and true. But if you trust in lies, a storm of ice will destroy your safe place. A flood of water will destroy the place where you are hiding.
I will stop your covenant with death. Your agreement with Sheol will not continue. When trouble comes like a deep flood of water, it will drown you.
A flood of punishment will come again and again, and it will carry you away. It will come every morning, and all through the day and the night.’ When you understand this message from the Lord, you will be very afraid.
You will not be able to rest, like a tall person who tries to sleep on a short bed. Your blanket will not cover your whole body.
But the Lord will do a great thing, like he did at Mount Perazim. He will be very angry, as he was in the Gibeon Valley. He will do something that is very wonderful and strange.
So do not laugh at me when I warn you. If you do not listen, your punishment will become even worse. The Lord Almighty has told me what he has decided. He has decided to destroy the whole land.
So listen carefully to my message. Hear what I am saying!
A farmer ploughs the ground because he wants to plant seeds in it. He does not continue to plough for ever.
When he has prepared the ground, he plants many different seeds. He plants dill and cummin. He plants wheat, barley and different grains in their proper places.
God teaches the farmer and he tells him the right thing to do.
After the harvest, the farmer knows how to remove seeds from dill or from cummin. He will not pull a heavy iron weight over dill. He will not run the wheels of a cart over cummin. Instead, he will hit them with a light stick.
When he crushes grain to make flour for bread, he does not do it for a long time. He drives the wheels of his cart over the grain, but he does not let his horses crush it.
The Lord Almighty causes farmers to know all that. His ideas are very wise, and he shows us how to live in a wise way.
Woe to drunken Ephraim’s proud crown, to the fading flower of its glorious beauty, on the peak that overlooks a fertile valley. Woe to those who are overcome with wine!
Look, the Lord has someone who is strong and mighty. Like a hailstorm, like a destructive windstorm, like a hurricane that drives surging waters, he will throw them down to the earth with his own hand.
Drunken Ephraim’s proud crown will be trampled underfoot.
The fading flower of its glorious beauty, on the peak overlooking a fertile valley, will be like the early figs before summer, which someone picks and swallows as soon as he sees them.
On that day the Lord of Armies will become a glorious crown and a beautifully braided headband for the remnant of his people.
He will provide a spirit of justice to the one who sits in judgment, and strength for those who turn back the battle at the gate.
They stagger into error because of wine, and they stumble off the way because of beer. The priests and prophets stagger with beer, and they are dizzy from wine. They stumble from beer. They stagger when they see visions. They reel when they render judgment.
All their tables are covered with vomit. There is not a spot without filth.
They say: Who is he trying to teach? Who needs his instruction? A baby who has just been weaned from milk? An infant just taken from the breast?
They say: Law by law, law by law, rule by rule, rule by rule, a little here, a little there.
So the Lord will speak to this people with barbarous lips and in a foreign tongue.
He said to them, “This is the resting place. Let the weary rest. This is the place to be refreshed,” but they would not listen.
That is why to them the word of the Lord will be: Law by law, law by law, rule by rule, rule by rule, a little here, a little there. As a result they will try to walk, but they will fall backwards. They will be hurt, trapped, and taken.
So now, hear the word of the Lord, you scoffers, who rule this people in Jerusalem.
You said: We have made a covenant with death, an agreement with the grave. When the punishing whip comes, it will not touch us, for we have made lies our refuge, and we have hidden ourselves behind falsehood.
Therefore, this is what the Lord God says: Look, I am laying a stone in Zion as a foundation, a tested stone, a precious cornerstone to provide a sure foundation. Whoever believes will not be put to shame.
I will make justice the measuring line and righteousness the plumb line. A hailstorm will sweep away the refuge of lies, and floodwaters will wash away your shelter.
Your covenant with death will be canceled, and your agreement with the grave will not stand. When the punishing whip comes, you will be beaten down by it.
Every time it comes, it will carry you away. It could come any morning, any day, any night. If you understand this message, you will be utterly terrified:
The bed is too short to lie on, and the blanket is too narrow to cover you.
For the Lord will rise up as he did on Mount Perazim. He will be enraged, as he was in the valley of Gibeon, to do his work, his strange work, and to accomplish his task, his foreign task.
Now stop your scornful attitude, or your chains will be made stronger, because I have heard a decree of destruction from the Lord, the Lord of Armies, against the whole earth.
Listen! Hear my voice. Pay attention to what I say.
Does the plowman keep plowing all day in order to plant? Does he keep tilling the soil and turning over the dirt?
When he has leveled the surface, doesn’t he plant the dill and scatter cumin seed? He plants the wheat in one place, barley in another field, and spelt along the edge.
His God instructs him and teaches him good judgment.
Of course he does not thresh the dill with a threshing sledge, nor does he roll the wheel of a cart over the cumin. No, he beats the dill with a stick and strikes the cumin with a staff.
Flour for bread needs to be ground, so he does not thresh endlessly. He drives the wheels of his threshing cart over it and even his team of horses, but he does not pulverize it.
This also springs forth from the Lord of Armies. He gives amazing advice. He provides great guidance.
Ah, the proud crown of the drunkards of Ephraim, and the fading flower of its glorious beauty, which is on the head of the rich valley of those overcome with wine!
Behold, the Lord has one who is mighty and strong; like a storm of hail, a destroying tempest, like a storm of mighty, overflowing waters, he casts down to the earth with his hand.
The proud crown of the drunkards of Ephraim will be trodden underfoot;
and the fading flower of its glorious beauty, which is on the head of the rich valley, will be like a first-ripe fig before the summer: when someone sees it, he swallows it as soon as it is in his hand.
In that day the Lord of hosts will be a crown of glory, and a diadem of beauty, to the remnant of his people,
and a spirit of justice to him who sits in judgment, and strength to those who turn back the battle at the gate.
These also reel with wine and stagger with strong drink; the priest and the prophet reel with strong drink, they are swallowed by wine, they stagger with strong drink, they reel in vision, they stumble in giving judgment.
For all tables are full of filthy vomit, with no space left.
“To whom will he teach knowledge, and to whom will he explain the message? Those who are weaned from the milk, those taken from the breast?
For it is precept upon precept, precept upon precept, line upon line, line upon line, here a little, there a little.”
For by people of strange lips and with a foreign tongue the Lord will speak to this people,
to whom he has said, “This is rest; give rest to the weary; and this is repose”; yet they would not hear.
And the word of the Lord will be to them precept upon precept, precept upon precept, line upon line, line upon line, here a little, there a little, that they may go, and fall backward, and be broken, and snared, and taken.
Therefore hear the word of the Lord, you scoffers, who rule this people in Jerusalem!
Because you have said, “We have made a covenant with death, and with Sheol we have an agreement, when the overwhelming whip passes through it will not come to us, for we have made lies our refuge, and in falsehood we have taken shelter”;
therefore thus says the Lord God, “Behold, I am the one who has laid as a foundation in Zion, a stone, a tested stone, a precious cornerstone, of a sure foundation: ‘Whoever believes will not be in haste.’
And I will make justice the line, and righteousness the plumb line; and hail will sweep away the refuge of lies, and waters will overwhelm the shelter.”
Then your covenant with death will be annulled, and your agreement with Sheol will not stand; when the overwhelming scourge passes through, you will be beaten down by it.
As often as it passes through it will take you; for morning by morning it will pass through, by day and by night; and it will be sheer terror to understand the message.
For the bed is too short to stretch oneself on, and the covering too narrow to wrap oneself in.
For the Lord will rise up as on Mount Perazim; as in the Valley of Gibeon he will be roused; to do his deed—strange is his deed! and to work his work—alien is his work!
Now therefore do not scoff, lest your bonds be made strong; for I have heard a decree of destruction from the Lord God of hosts against the whole land.
Give ear, and hear my voice; give attention, and hear my speech.
Does he who plows for sowing plow continually? Does he continually open and harrow his ground?
When he has leveled its surface, does he not scatter dill, sow cumin, and put in wheat in rows and barley in its proper place, and emmer as the border?
For he is rightly instructed; his God teaches him.
Dill is not threshed with a threshing sledge, nor is a cart wheel rolled over cumin, but dill is beaten out with a stick, and cumin with a rod.
Does one crush grain for bread? No, he does not thresh it forever; when he drives his cart wheel over it with his horses, he does not crush it.
This also comes from the Lord of hosts; he is wonderful in counsel and excellent in wisdom.
Ah, the proud crown of the drunkards of Ephraim, and the fading flower of its glorious beauty, which is on the head of the rich valley of those overcome with wine!
Behold, the Lord has one who is mighty and strong; like a storm of hail, a destroying tempest, like a storm of mighty, overflowing waters, he casts down to the earth with his hand.
The proud crown of the drunkards of Ephraim will be trodden underfoot;
and the fading flower of its glorious beauty, which is on the head of the rich valley, will be like a first-ripe fig before the summer: when someone sees it, he swallows it as soon as it is in his hand.
In that day the Lord of hosts will be a crown of glory, and a diadem of beauty, to the remnant of his people,
and a spirit of justice to him who sits in judgement, and strength to those who turn back the battle at the gate.
These also reel with wine and stagger with strong drink; the priest and the prophet reel with strong drink, they are swallowed by wine, they stagger with strong drink, they reel in vision, they stumble in giving judgement.
For all tables are full of filthy vomit, with no space left.
“To whom will he teach knowledge, and to whom will he explain the message? Those who are weaned from the milk, those taken from the breast?
For it is precept upon precept, precept upon precept, line upon line, line upon line, here a little, there a little.”
For by people of strange lips and with a foreign tongue the Lord will speak to this people,
to whom he has said, “This is rest; give rest to the weary; and this is repose”; yet they would not hear.
And the word of the Lord will be to them precept upon precept, precept upon precept, line upon line, line upon line, here a little, there a little, that they may go, and fall backwards, and be broken, and snared, and taken.
Therefore hear the word of the Lord, you scoffers, who rule this people in Jerusalem!
Because you have said, “We have made a covenant with death, and with Sheol we have an agreement, when the overwhelming whip passes through it will not come to us, for we have made lies our refuge, and in falsehood we have taken shelter”;
therefore thus says the Lord God, “Behold, I am the one who has laid as a foundation in Zion, a stone, a tested stone, a precious cornerstone, of a sure foundation: ‘Whoever believes will not be in haste.’
And I will make justice the line, and righteousness the plumb line; and hail will sweep away the refuge of lies, and waters will overwhelm the shelter.”
Then your covenant with death will be annulled, and your agreement with Sheol will not stand; when the overwhelming scourge passes through, you will be beaten down by it.
As often as it passes through it will take you; for morning by morning it will pass through, by day and by night; and it will be sheer terror to understand the message.
For the bed is too short to stretch oneself on, and the covering too narrow to wrap oneself in.
For the Lord will rise up as on Mount Perazim; as in the Valley of Gibeon he will be roused; to do his deed—strange is his deed! and to work his work—alien is his work!
Now therefore do not scoff, lest your bonds be made strong; for I have heard a decree of destruction from the Lord God of hosts against the whole land.
Give ear, and hear my voice; give attention, and hear my speech.
Does he who ploughs for sowing plough continually? Does he continually open and harrow his ground?
When he has levelled its surface, does he not scatter dill, sow cumin, and put in wheat in rows and barley in its proper place, and emmer as the border?
For he is rightly instructed; his God teaches him.
Dill is not threshed with a threshing sledge, nor is a cart wheel rolled over cumin, but dill is beaten out with a stick, and cumin with a rod.
Does one crush grain for bread? No, he does not thresh it for ever; when he drives his cart wheel over it with his horses, he does not crush it.
This also comes from the Lord of hosts; he is wonderful in counsel and excellent in wisdom.
·How terrible it will be for [L Woe to] Samaria [C the capital of the northern kingdom of Israel], the pride of ·Israel’s [L Ephraim’s] drunken people! That beautiful ·crown [wreath; garland] of flowers is ·just a dying plant [fading] set on ·a hill above [L the head of] a rich valley ·where drunkards live [of those overcome with wine].
Look, the Lord has someone who is strong and powerful. Like a storm of hail and ·strong [destructive] wind, like a sudden flood of water pouring over the country, he will throw Samaria down to the ground [L with his hand].
That city, the pride of ·Israel’s [L Ephraim’s] drunken people, will be trampled underfoot.
That beautiful ·crown [wreath; garland] of flowers is ·just a dying plant [fading] set on ·a hill above [L the head of] a rich valley. That city will be like the first ripe fig of summer. Anyone who sees it quickly ·picks it [takes it in hand] and ·eats [swallows] it.
·At that time [L In that day] the Lord ·All-Powerful [Almighty; of Heaven’s Armies; T of hosts] ·will be like [L will be] a beautiful crown, ·like a wonderful [a beautiful] ·crown of flowers [wreath; garland; diadem] for ·his people who are left alive [the remnant of his people].
Then he will give ·wisdom [a spirit of justice/judgment] to ·the judges who must decide cases [L those who sit in judgment] and strength to those who battle at the city gate.
But now those leaders ·are drunk [reel] with wine; they ·stumble [stagger] from drinking too much ·beer [T strong drink; C alcoholic beverage made from grain]. The priests and prophets ·are drunk [stagger] with ·beer [T strong drink] and are ·filled with [swallowed by; or confused because of] wine. They stumble from too much ·beer [T strong drink]. ·The prophets [L They] ·are drunk [stagger] when they see their visions; ·the judges [they] stumble ·when they make their decisions [in judgment].
Every table is covered with vomit, so there is not a clean place anywhere.
·The Lord is trying to teach the people a lesson [L Who is he teaching knowledge?]; ·he is trying to make them understand his teachings [L To whom is he explaining the message?]. ·But the people are like babies too old for breast milk [Those weaned from milk?], ·like those who no longer nurse at their mother’s breast [Those taken from the breast?].
So ·they make fun of the Lord’s prophet and say [or the Lord must repeat himself again and again; L For it is]: “·A command here, a command there [T Precept upon precept, precept upon precept]. ·A rule here, a rule there [T Line upon line, line upon line; C Hebrew: tsav latsav tsav latsav / kav lakav kav lakav; it may be the people mocking the words of the prophets as nonsense; or it may refer to God repeating himself because the people will not listen]. A little lesson here, a little lesson there [L A little there, a little there].”
So the Lord will use ·strange words [mocking/stammering lips] and foreign ·languages [tongues] to speak to these people.
God said to them, “Here is a place of rest; let the ·tired people [weary] come and rest. This is the place of peace.” But the people would not listen.
So the words of the Lord will be, “·A command here, a command there [T Precept upon precept, precept upon precept]. ·A rule here, a rule there [T Line upon line, line upon line]. ·A little lesson here, a little lesson there [L A little there, a little there; C see v. 10; God now uses the same words to mimic the foreign language of the Assyrian invaders].” They will fall back and be ·defeated [broken]; they will be ·trapped and captured [snared and taken].
So listen to the Lord’s message, you who ·brag [mock; scoff; Prov. 1:22; 9:7, 8, 12; 13:1], you ·leaders [L who rule this people] in Jerusalem.
You say, “We have made an ·agreement [treaty; covenant] with death; we have a ·contract [agreement; pact] with ·death [or the grave; L Sheol]. When ·terrible punishment [an overwhelming scourge/flood] passes by, it won’t ·hurt [touch; reach] us. Our lies ·will keep us safe [L are our refuge], and ·our tricks [falsehood] ·will hide us [is our refuge/shelter].”
Because of these things, this is what the Lord God says: “I will ·put [lay; establish] a stone in the ground in ·Jerusalem [L Zion; C the location of the Temple], a tested stone. ·Everything will be built on this important and precious rock [L …a precious cornerstone for a firm foundation]. Anyone who trusts in it will never ·be disappointed [or panic; waver; be shaken; Rom. 9:33; 1 Pet. 2:6].
I will use justice as a measuring line and ·goodness [righteousness] as the ·standard [plumb line]. The lies you ·hide behind [take refuge in] will be ·destroyed [swept away] as if by hail. ·They [Your hiding place/shelter] will be washed away as if in a flood.
Your ·agreement [covenant; treaty] with death will be ·erased [annulled]; your contract with ·death [or the grave; L Sheol] will not ·help you [stand; last]. When ·terrible punishment [overwhelming scourge/flood] comes, you will be ·crushed [beaten down] by it.
Whenever ·punishment [L it] comes, it will take you away. It will come morning after morning; it will ·defeat you [sweep through] by day and by night. Those who understand this punishment will be terrified.”
·You will be like the person who tried to sleep on a bed that was too short [L For the bed is too short to stretch out on] and ·with a blanket that [L the blanket] was too narrow to wrap around himself.
The Lord will ·fight [L rise up] as he did at Mount Perazim [2 Sam. 5:20]. He will be ·angry [rouse himself] as he was in the Valley of Gibeon [Josh. 10:10–14]. He will do his work, his ·strange [peculiar] work. He will finish his job, his ·strange [unusual] job.
Now, ·you must not make fun of these things [do not mock; or stop your mocking], or the ·ropes [or chains; bonds] around you will become ·tighter [or heavier]. The Lord God ·All-Powerful [Almighty; of Heaven’s Armies; T of hosts] has ·told me [decreed to me] how the whole ·earth [land] will be destroyed.
Listen closely to ·what I tell you [my voice]; ·listen carefully to [pay attention to; heed] what I say.
·A farmer does not [L Does the plower…?] plow his field all the time; ·he does not [L does he…?] go on working the soil.
·He makes [Does he not make…?] the ground flat and smooth. Then he plants the dill and scatters the cumin. ·He plants [Does he not plant…?] the wheat in rows, the barley in its special place, and other wheat as a border around the field.
His God ·teaches [instructs] him and ·shows [teaches] him the right way.
A farmer doesn’t use ·heavy boards to crush [a sledge to thresh] dill; he doesn’t use a wagon wheel to crush cumin. He uses a small stick to break open the dill, and with a ·stick [rod; flail] he opens the cumin.
The grain is ground to make bread. People do not ruin it by ·crushing [threshing] it forever. The farmer separates the wheat from the chaff with his cart, but he does not let his horses ·grind [crush] it.
This lesson [C that the Lord’s punishment fits the sin] also comes from the Lord ·All-Powerful [Almighty; of Heaven’s Armies; T of hosts], who gives wonderful ·advice [counsel; 9:6], who ·is very wise [or gives excellent/great wisdom].
Against the pride and drunkenness of Israel. 9 The untowardness of them that should learn the word of God. 24 God doeth all things in time and place. Woe to the crown of pride, the drunkards of Ephraim: for his glorious beauty shall be a fading flower, which is upon the head of the valley of them that be fat, and are overcome with wine.
Behold, the Lord hath a mighty and strong host like a tempest of hail, and a whirlwind that overthroweth, like a tempest of mighty waters that overflow, which throw to the ground mightily.
They shall be trodden under foot, even the crown and the pride of the drunkards of Ephraim.
For his glorious beauty shall be a fading flower, which is upon the head of the valley of them that be fat, and as the hasty fruit afore Summer, which when he hath looketh upon it, seeth it, while it is in his hand, he eateth it.
In that day shall the Lord of hosts be for a crown of glory, and for a diadem of beauty unto the residue of his people:
And for a spirit of judgment to him that sitteth in judgment, and for strength unto them that turn away the battle to the gate.
But they have erred because of wine, and are out of the way by strong drink: the Priest and the prophet have erred by strong drink: they are swallowed up with wine: they have gone astray through strong drink: they fail in vision: they stumble in judgment.
For all their tables are full of filthy vomiting: no place is clean.
Whom shall he teach knowledge? and whom shall he make to understand the things that he heareth? them that are weaned from the milk, and drawn from the breasts.
For precept must be upon precept, precept upon precept, line unto line, line unto line, there a little, and there a little.
For with a stammering tongue, and with a strange language shall he speak unto this people.
Unto whom he said, This is the rest: give rest unto him that is weary, and this is the refreshing, but they would not hear.
Therefore shall the word of the Lord be unto them precept upon precept, precept upon precept, line unto line, line unto line, there a little and there a little: that they may go and fall backward, and be broken, and be snared, and be taken.
Wherefore hear the word of the Lord, ye scornful men, that rule this people, which is at Jerusalem.
Because ye have said, We have made a covenant with death, and with hell are we at agreement: though a scourge run over, and pass through, it shall not come at us: for we have made falsehood our refuge, and under vanity are we hid,
Therefore thus saith the Lord God, Behold, I will lay in Zion a stone, a tried stone, a precious cornerstone, a sure foundation. He that believeth, shall not make haste.
Judgment also will I lay to the rule, and righteousness to the balance, and the hail shall sweep away the vain confidence, and the waters shall overflow the secret place.
And your covenant with death shall be disannulled, and your agreement with hell shall not stand: when a scourge shall run over and pass through, then shall ye be trodden down by it.
When it passeth over, it shall take you away: for it shall pass through every morning in the day and in the night, and there shall be only fear, to make you to understand the hearing.
For the bed is strait, that it cannot suffice, and the covering narrow, that one cannot wrap himself.
For the Lord shall stand as in mount Perazim: he shall be wroth as in the valley of Gibeon, that he may do his work, his strange work, and bring to pass his act, his strange act.
Now therefore be no mockers, lest your bonds increase: for I have heard of the Lord of hosts a consumption, even determined upon the whole earth.
Hearken ye, and hear my voice: hearken ye, and hear my speech.
Doth the plowman plow all the day, to sow? doth he open, and break the clots of his ground?
When he hath made it plain, will he not then sow the fitches, and sow cumin, and cast in wheat by measure, and the appointed barley and rye in their place?
For his God doth instruct him to have discretion, and doth teach him.
For fitches shall not be threshed with a threshing instrument, neither shall a cartwheel be turned about upon the cumin: but the fitches are beaten out with a staff, and cumin with a rod.
Bread corn when it is threshed, he doth not always thresh it, neither doth the wheel of his cart still make a noise, neither will he break it with the teeth thereof.
This also cometh from the Lord of hosts, which is wonderful in counsel, and excellent in works.
How horrible it will be for the arrogant drunks of Ephraim. Their glorious beauty is ⌞like⌟ a withered flower. They are at the entrance to a fertile valley where they lie drunk from wine.
The Lord has one who is strong and powerful. He is like a hailstorm, a destructive wind. He is like a thunderstorm, an overwhelming flood. He will throw them to the ground forcefully.
The arrogant drunks of Ephraim will be trampled underfoot.
Their glorious beauty is ⌞like⌟ a withered flower. They are at the entrance to a fertile valley. They will be like figs that ripened early. As soon as someone sees them, they will be taken and eaten.
When that day comes, the Lord of Armies will be like a glorious crown for his few remaining people.
He will give a spirit of justice to those who judge. He will give strength to those who defend the city gates in battle.
Priests and prophets stagger from wine and wobble from too much liquor. They stagger from too much liquor and become confused from too much wine. They wobble because of their liquor. They stagger when they see visions. They swerve as they judge.
All the tables are covered with vomit and excrement. There isn’t a clean place left.
To whom will they make the message understood? To whom will they explain this message? To children just weaned from milk? To those just taken from their ⌞mother’s⌟ breasts?
They speak utter nonsense.
The Lord will speak to these people. He will mock them by speaking in a foreign language.
He will say to them, “This is a place for comfort. This is a place of rest for those who are tired. This is a place for them to rest.” But they weren’t willing to listen.
The Lord speaks utter nonsense to them. That is why they will fall backwards. That is why they will be hurt, trapped, and captured.
So hear the Lord’s word, you foolish talkers who rule the people in Jerusalem.
You say, “We made a treaty with death and an agreement with the grave. When the overwhelming disaster passes by, it won’t matter to us, because we have taken refuge in our lies, and falsehood is our hiding place.”
This is what the Almighty Lord says: I am going to lay a rock in Zion, a rock that has been tested, a precious cornerstone, a solid foundation. Whoever believes ⌞in him⌟ will not worry.
I will make justice a measuring line and righteousness a plumb line. Hail will sweep away your refuge of lies, and floodwaters will wash away your hiding place.
Your treaty with death will be wiped away. Your agreement with the grave will not stand. When the overwhelming disaster passes by, you will be trampled by it.
Each time it passes by it will take you. It will pass by morning after morning, during the day and during the night. Understanding this message brings only terror.
The bed is too short to stretch out on. The blanket is too narrow to serve as a cover.
The Lord will rise as he did on Mount Perazim. He will wake up as he did in Gibeon Valley. He will do his work, his unexpected work, and perform his deeds, his mysterious deeds.
Now stop laughing, or your chains will be tightened, because I have heard that the Almighty Lord of Armies has finally determined to destroy the whole land.
Open your ears, and listen to me! Pay attention, and hear me!
Does a farmer go on plowing every day so he can plant? Does he continue to break up the soil and make furrows in the ground?
When he has smoothed its surface, doesn’t he scatter black cumin seed and plant cumin? Doesn’t he plant wild wheat in rows? Doesn’t he put barley in its own area and winter wheat at its borders?
God will guide him in judgment, and his God will teach him.
Black cumin isn’t threshed with a sledge, and wagon wheels aren’t rolled over cumin. Black cumin is beaten with a rod and cumin with a stick.
Grain is ground into flour, but the grinding eventually stops. It will be threshed. The wheels of his cart will roll over it, but his horses won’t crush it.
All of this has come from the Lord of Armies. His counsel is wonderful, and his wisdom is great.
The kingdom of Israel is doomed! Its glory is fading like the crowns of flowers on the heads of its drunken leaders. Their proud heads are well perfumed, but there they lie, dead drunk.
The Lord has someone strong and powerful ready to attack them, someone who will come like a hailstorm, like a torrent of rain, like a rushing, overpowering flood, and will overwhelm the land.
The pride of those drunken leaders will be trampled underfoot.
The fading glory of those proud leaders will disappear like the first figs of the season, picked and eaten as soon as they are ripe.
A day is coming when the Lord Almighty will be like a glorious crown of flowers for his people who survive.
He will give a sense of justice to those who serve as judges, and courage to those who defend the city gates from attack.
Even the prophets and the priests are so drunk that they stagger. They have drunk so much wine and liquor that they stumble in confusion. The prophets are too drunk to understand the visions that God sends, and the priests are too drunk to decide the cases that are brought to them.
The tables where they sit are all covered with vomit, and not a clean spot is left.
They complain about me. They say, “Who does that man think he's teaching? Who needs his message? It's only good for babies that have just stopped nursing!
He is trying to teach us letter by letter, line by line, lesson by lesson.”
If you won't listen to me, then God will use foreigners speaking some strange-sounding language to teach you a lesson.
He offered rest and comfort to all of you, but you refused to listen to him.
That is why the Lord is going to teach you letter by letter, line by line, lesson by lesson. Then you will stumble with every step you take. You will be wounded, trapped, and taken prisoner.
Now you arrogant leaders who rule here in Jerusalem over this people, listen to what the Lord is saying.
You boast that you have made a treaty with death and reached an agreement with the world of the dead. You are certain that disaster will spare you when it comes, because you depend on lies and deceit to keep you safe.
This, now, is what the Sovereign Lord says: “I am placing in Zion a foundation that is firm and strong. In it I am putting a solid cornerstone on which are written the words, ‘Faith that is firm is also patient.’
Justice will be the measuring line for the foundation, and honesty will be its plumb line.” Hailstorms will sweep away all the lies you depend on, and floods will destroy your security.
The treaty you have made with death will be abolished, and your agreement with the world of the dead will be canceled. When disaster sweeps down, you will be overcome.
It will strike you again and again, morning after morning. You will have to bear it day and night. Each new message from God will bring new terror!
You will be like the person in the proverb, who tries to sleep in a bed too short to stretch out on, with a blanket too narrow to wrap himself in.
The Lord will fight as he did at Mount Perazim and in the valley of Gibeon, in order to do what he intends to do—strange as his actions may seem. He will complete his work, his mysterious work.
Don't laugh at the warning I am giving you! If you do, it will be even harder for you to escape. I have heard the Lord Almighty's decision to destroy the whole country.
Listen to what I am saying; pay attention to what I am telling you.
Farmers don't constantly plow their fields and keep getting them ready for planting.
Once they have prepared the soil, they plant the seeds of herbs such as dill and cumin. They plant rows of wheat and barley, and at the edges of their fields they plant other grain.
They know how to do their work, because God has taught them.
They never use a heavy club to beat out dill seeds or cumin seeds; instead they use light sticks of the proper size.
They do not ruin the wheat by threshing it endlessly, and they know how to thresh it by driving a cart over it without bruising the grains.
All this wisdom comes from the Lord Almighty. The plans God makes are wise, and they always succeed.
Woe to the majestic crown of Ephraim’s drunkards, and to the fading flower of its beautiful splendor, which is on the summit above the rich valley. Woe to those overcome with wine.
Look, the Lord has a strong and mighty one— like a devastating hail storm, like a storm with strong flooding waters. He will bring it across the land with His hand.
The majestic crown of Ephraim’s drunkards will be trampled underfoot.
The fading flower of his beautiful splendor, which is on the summit above the rich valley, will be like a ripe fig before the summer harvest. Whoever sees it will swallow it while it is still in his hand.
On that day the Lord of Hosts will become a crown of beauty and a diadem of splendor to the remnant of His people,
a spirit of justice to the one who sits in judgment, and strength to those who turn back the battle at the gate.
These also stagger because of wine and stumble under the influence of beer: priest and prophet stagger because of beer, they are confused by wine. They stumble because of beer, they are muddled in their visions, they stumble in their judgments.
Indeed, all their tables are covered with vomit; there is no place without a stench.
Who is he trying to teach? Who is he trying to instruct? Infants just weaned from milk? Babies removed from the breast?
For he says: “Law after law, law after law, line after line, line after line, a little here, a little there.”
So He will speak to this people with stammering speech and in a foreign language.
He had said to them: “This is the place of rest, let the weary rest; this is the place of repose.” But they would not listen.
Then the word of the Lord came to them: “Law after law, law after law, line after line, line after line, a little here, a little there,” so they go stumbling backward, to be broken, trapped, and captured.
Therefore hear the word of the Lord, you mockers who rule this people in Jerusalem.
For you said, “We have cut a deal with Death, and we have made an agreement with Sheol; when the overwhelming scourge passes through, it will not touch us, because we have made falsehood our refuge and have hidden behind treachery.”
Therefore the Lord God said: “Look, I have laid a stone in Zion, a tested stone, a precious cornerstone, a sure foundation; the one who believes will be unshakable.
And I will make justice the measuring line and righteousness the mason’s level.” Hail will sweep away the false refuge, and water will flood your hiding place.
Your deal with Death will be dissolved, and your agreement with Sheol will not last. When the overwhelming scourge passes through, you will be trampled.
Every time it passes through, it will carry you away; it will pass through every morning— every day and every night. Only terror will cause you to understand the message.
Indeed, the bed is too short to stretch out on, and its cover too small to wrap up in.
For the Lord will rise up as He did at Mount Perazim. He will rise in wrath, as at the Valley of Gibeon, to do His work, His strange work, and to perform His task, His disturbing task.
So now, do not mock, or your shackles will become stronger. Indeed, I have heard from the Lord God of Hosts a decree of destruction for the whole land.
Listen and hear my voice. Pay attention and hear what I say.
Does the plowman plow every day to plant seed? Does he continuously break up and cultivate the soil?
When he has leveled its surface, does he not then scatter black cumin and sow cumin? He plants wheat in rows and barley in plots, with spelt as their border.
His God teaches him order; He instructs him.
Certainly black cumin is not threshed with a threshing board, and a cart wheel is not rolled over the cumin. But black cumin is beaten out with a stick, and cumin with a rod.
Bread grain is crushed, but is not threshed endlessly. Though the wheel of the farmer’s cart rumbles, his horses do not crush it.
This also comes from the Lord of Hosts. He gives wonderful advice; He gives great wisdom.
How terrible it will be for Samaria, the pride of Israel’s drunken people! That beautiful crown of flowers is just a dying plant. It sits on a hill above a rich valley where drunkards live.
Look, the Lord has someone who is strong and full of power. That person will come like a storm of hail and strong wind. He will come like a sudden flood of water pouring over the country. He will throw Samaria down to the ground.
That city, the pride of Israel’s drunken people, will be trampled underfoot.
That beautiful crown of flowers is just a dying plant. It sits on a hill above a rich valley. That city will be like the first fig of summer. When a person sees it, he quickly picks it and eats it.
At that time the Lord of heaven’s armies will be like a beautiful crown. He will be like a wonderful crown of flowers for his people who are left alive.
Then the Lord will give wisdom to the judges who rule his people. The Lord will give strength to those who battle at the city gate.
But now those leaders are drunk with wine. They stumble from drinking too much beer. The priests and prophets are drunk with beer. They are filled with wine. They stumble from too much beer. The prophets are drunk when they see their visions. The judges stumble when they make their decisions.
Every table is covered with vomit. There is not a clean place anywhere.
The Lord is trying to teach the people a lesson. He is trying to make them understand his teachings. But the people are like little babies. They are like babies who just nursed at their mother’s breast.
So they make fun of the Lord’s prophet and say: “A command here, a command there. A rule here, a rule there. A lesson here, a lesson there.”
So the Lord will use strange words and foreign languages to speak to these people.
God said to them, “Here is a place of rest. Let the tired people come and rest. This is the place of peace.” But the people would not listen.
So the words of the Lord will be, “A command here, a command there. A rule here, a rule there. A lesson here, a lesson there.” They will fall back and will be defeated. They will be trapped and captured.
You who brag should listen to the Lord’s message. Pay attention, you leaders in Jerusalem.
You say, “We have made an agreement with death. We have a contract with death. When punishment passes by, it won’t hurt us. We will be safe with our lies. We will hide behind our tricks.”
Because of these things, this is what the Lord God says: “I will put a stone in the ground in Jerusalem. This will be a tested stone. Everything will be built on this important and precious rock. Anyone who trusts in it will never be disappointed.
I will use justice as a measuring line. I will use goodness to measure by. The lies you hide behind will be destroyed as if by hail. They will be washed away as if in a flood.
Your agreement with death will be erased. Your contract with death will not help you. When punishment comes, you will be crushed by it.
Whenever punishment comes, it will take you away. It will come morning after morning. It will defeat you by day and by night. Those who hear of this punishment will be terrified.”
You will be like the man who tried to sleep on a bed that was too short for him. And his blanket was too narrow to wrap around himself.
The Lord will fight as he did at Mount Perazim. He will be angry as he was in the Valley of Gibeon. Then the Lord will do his work, his strange work. He will finish his job, his strange job.
Now, you must not make fun of these things. If you do, the ropes around you will become tighter. The Lord of heaven’s armies has told me these things. He has told me how the whole earth will be destroyed.
Listen closely to what I tell you. Listen carefully to what I say.
A farmer does not plow his field all the time. He does not go on working the soil.
He prepares the ground. Then he plants the dill seed and scatters the cummin seed. He plants the wheat in rows. He plants barley in its special place, and other wheat in its own field.
His God teaches him and shows him the right way.
A farmer doesn’t use heavy boards to crush dill. He doesn’t use a wagon to crush cummin. He uses a small stick to break open the dill. With a stick he opens the cummin.
The grain is ground to make bread. People do not ruin it by crushing it forever. The farmer separates the wheat from the chaff with his cart. But he does not let his horses grind it.
This lesson comes from the Lord of heaven’s armies. He gives wonderful advice. He is very wise.
How terrible it will be for that arrogant garland— the drunks of Ephraim! How terrible it will be for that fading flower of his glorious beauty, which sits on the heads of people bloated with food, of people overcome with wine!
Look! The Lord has one who is mighty and strong, like a hailstorm and destructive tempest, like a storm of mighty, overflowing water— and he will give rest to the land.
With hands and feet, that proud garland— those drunks of Ephraim—will be trampled.
And that fading flower, his glorious beauty, which sits on the heads of people bloated with food, will be like an early fig before summer— whenever someone sees it, he swallows it as soon as it’s in his hand.
At that time, the Lord of the Heavenly Armies will become a glorious crown, a beautiful diadem for the remnant of his people,
and a spirit of justice to the one who sits in judgment, a source of strength to those who turn back the battle at the gate.
These people also stagger from wine and reel from strong drink. Priests and prophets stagger from strong drink; they’re drunk from wine; they reel from strong drink, waver when seeing visions, and stumble when rendering decisions.
For all the tables are covered in vomit and filth, with no clean space left.
To whom will he teach knowledge, and to whom will he explain the message? To children just weaned from milk? To those just taken from the breast?
For it is: “Do this and do that, do this and do that, Line upon line, line upon line, a little here, a little there.”
Very well, then, through the mouths of foreigners and foreign languages the Lord will speak to this people
to whom he said, “This is the resting place, so give rest to the weary”’ and, “This is the place of repose”— but they would not listen.
So, then, the message from the Lord to them will become: “Do this and do that, do this and do that, line upon line, line upon line, a little here, a little there,” so that they will go, but fall backward, and be injured, snared, and captured.
“Therefore hear the message from the Lord, you scoffers who rule this people that are in Jerusalem.
Because you said: ‘We have entered into a covenant with death, and we have an agreement with Sheol, so when the overwhelming scourge makes its choice, it cannot reach us, since we have made lies our refuge and have concealed ourselves inside falsehood,’
therefore this is what the Lord God says: “Look! I am laying a foundation stone in Zion, a tested stone, a precious cornerstone for a sure foundation: Whoever believes firmly will not act hastily.
And I will make justice the measuring line, and righteousness the plumb line; hail will sweep away your refuge of lies, and floods will overflow your hiding place.
“Then your covenant with death will be annulled, and your agreement with Sheol will not stand; when the overwhelming scourge sweeps by, you will be trampled by it.
As often as it sweeps through, it will carry you away, for it will sweep by morning after morning in the day; but understanding this message will bring sheer terror at night,
because the bed is too short to stretch out on, and its blankets too narrow to wrap around oneself!
For the Lord will stand upon Mount Perazim, he will rouse himself in the Valley of Gibeon; to carry out his work— his strange deed, and to perform his task— his alien task!
But as for you, don’t start mocking, or your chains will become tighter; for I have heard from the Lord of the Heavenly Armies about destruction, and it is decreed against the whole land.
“Pay attention! Listen to what I have to say; Pay attention, and hear my speech.
Does he who plows for sowing plow all the time? Does he keep on breaking up and harrowing his field?
When he has leveled its surface, he scatters caraway and sows cumin, doesn’t he? He plants wheat in rows, barley in its designated place, and feed for livestock around its borders, doesn’t he?
His God instructs him regarding the correct way, directing him how to plant.
For caraway is not threshed with a sharp sledge, nor is a cart wheel rolled over cumin. Instead, caraway is winnowed with a stick, and cumin with a rod.
It must be ground; one cannot keep threshing it forever. Even if he drives his cart and horses over it, he cannot crush it.
This insight also comes from the Lord of the Heavenly Armies, who is distinguished in practical advice and magnificent in sound wisdom.”
¶ Woe to the crown of pride, to the drunkards of Ephraim and to the open flower of the beauty of their glory which is upon the head of the fertile valley of those that are overcome with wine!
Behold, the Lord has a mighty and strong one who as a tempest of hail and a destroying storm, as a flood of mighty waters overflowing shall cast down to the earth with the hand.
The crown of pride, the drunkards of Ephraim, shall be trodden under feet:
And the fading flower of the beauty of their glory, which is upon the head of the fertile valley, shall be as the early fig, which comes first before the other fruits of the summer; which when he that looks upon it sees it; as soon as he has it in his hand, he eats it up.
In that day the LORD of the hosts shall be for a crown of glory and for a diadem of beauty unto the residue of his people,
And for a spirit of judgment to him that sits upon the throne of judgment, and for strength to those that turn the battle to the gate.
But they also have erred through wine, and through strong drink are out of the way; the priest and the prophet have erred through strong drink; they are swallowed up of wine, they are out of the way through strong drink; they err in vision, they stumble in judgment.
For all tables are full of vomit and filthiness, so that there is no place clean.
¶ Whom shall he teach knowledge? and whom shall he make to understand doctrine? Those that are weaned from the milk and drawn from the breasts.
For precept must be upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little:
For with stammering lips and another tongue he will speak to this people.
To whom he said, This is the rest with which ye may cause the weary to rest; and this is the refreshing: yet they would not hear.
But the word of the LORD shall be unto them precept upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little; that they might go and fall backward and be broken and snared and taken.
¶ Therefore hear the word of the LORD, ye scornful men, that have taken rule over this people which is in Jerusalem.
Because ye have said, We have made a covenant with death, and with Sheol we are at agreement; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, it shall not come unto us: for we have made lies our refuge, and under falsehood we have hid ourselves:
Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD, Behold, I lay in Zion for a foundation a stone, a tried stone, a precious corner stone, a sure foundation: he that believes shall not make haste.
Judgment also will I lay to the line and righteousness to the plummet: and the hail shall sweep away the refuge of lies, and the waters shall overflow the hiding place.
And your covenant with death shall be disannulled, and your agreement with Sheol shall not stand; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, then ye shall be trodden down by it.
From the time that it goes forth, it shall take you: for it shall come suddenly, by day and by night: and it shall be that the terror only causes one to understand the report.
For the bed is shorter than that a man can stretch himself on it: and the covering narrower than that he can wrap himself in it.
For the LORD shall rise up as in Mount Perazim, he shall be wroth as in the valley of Gibeon, that he may do his work, his strange work; and bring to pass his act, his strange act.
Now therefore do not be mockers lest your bands be made strong: for I have heard from the Lord GOD of the hosts that consumption and destruction are determined upon the whole earth.
¶ Give ye ear and hear my voice; hearken and hear my speech.
Does the plowman plow all day to sow? does he open and break the clods of his ground?
When he has levelled the face thereof, does he not cast abroad the fitches and scatter the cummin and cast in the principal wheat and the appointed barley and the rye in their place?
For his God teaches him to know how to judge and instructs him.
For the fitches are not threshed with a threshing instrument, neither is a cart wheel turned about upon the cummin; but the fitches are beaten out with a staff and the cummin with a rod.
Grain is thrashed to make bread; but he will not ever be threshing it, nor shall he grind it with the wheel of his cart, nor crush it with the teeth of his thrashing instrument.
This also comes forth from the LORD of the hosts to make his counsel wonderful, and to increase wisdom.
Woe to the crown of pride, to the drunkards of Ephraim, whose glorious beauty is a fading flower, which are on the head of the fat valleys of them that are overcome with wine!
Behold, the Lord hath a mighty and strong one, which as a tempest of hail and a destroying storm, as a flood of mighty waters overflowing, shall cast down to the earth with the hand.
The crown of pride, the drunkards of Ephraim, shall be trodden under feet:
And the glorious beauty, which is on the head of the fat valley, shall be a fading flower, and as the hasty fruit before the summer; which when he that looketh upon it seeth, while it is yet in his hand he eateth it up.
In that day shall the Lord of hosts be for a crown of glory, and for a diadem of beauty, unto the residue of his people,
And for a spirit of judgment to him that sitteth in judgment, and for strength to them that turn the battle to the gate.
But they also have erred through wine, and through strong drink are out of the way; the priest and the prophet have erred through strong drink, they are swallowed up of wine, they are out of the way through strong drink; they err in vision, they stumble in judgment.
For all tables are full of vomit and filthiness, so that there is no place clean.
Whom shall he teach knowledge? and whom shall he make to understand doctrine? them that are weaned from the milk, and drawn from the breasts.
For precept must be upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little:
For with stammering lips and another tongue will he speak to this people.
To whom he said, This is the rest wherewith ye may cause the weary to rest; and this is the refreshing: yet they would not hear.
But the word of the Lord was unto them precept upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little; that they might go, and fall backward, and be broken, and snared, and taken.
Wherefore hear the word of the Lord, ye scornful men, that rule this people which is in Jerusalem.
Because ye have said, We have made a covenant with death, and with hell are we at agreement; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, it shall not come unto us: for we have made lies our refuge, and under falsehood have we hid ourselves:
Therefore thus saith the Lord God, Behold, I lay in Zion for a foundation a stone, a tried stone, a precious corner stone, a sure foundation: he that believeth shall not make haste.
Judgment also will I lay to the line, and righteousness to the plummet: and the hail shall sweep away the refuge of lies, and the waters shall overflow the hiding place.
And your covenant with death shall be disannulled, and your agreement with hell shall not stand; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, then ye shall be trodden down by it.
From the time that it goeth forth it shall take you: for morning by morning shall it pass over, by day and by night: and it shall be a vexation only to understand the report.
For the bed is shorter than that a man can stretch himself on it: and the covering narrower than that he can wrap himself in it.
For the Lord shall rise up as in mount Perazim, he shall be wroth as in the valley of Gibeon, that he may do his work, his strange work; and bring to pass his act, his strange act.
Now therefore be ye not mockers, lest your bands be made strong: for I have heard from the Lord God of hosts a consumption, even determined upon the whole earth.
Give ye ear, and hear my voice; hearken, and hear my speech.
Doth the plowman plow all day to sow? doth he open and break the clods of his ground?
When he hath made plain the face thereof, doth he not cast abroad the fitches, and scatter the cummin, and cast in the principal wheat and the appointed barley and the rie in their place?
For his God doth instruct him to discretion, and doth teach him.
For the fitches are not threshed with a threshing instrument, neither is a cart wheel turned about upon the cummin; but the fitches are beaten out with a staff, and the cummin with a rod.
Bread corn is bruised; because he will not ever be threshing it, nor break it with the wheel of his cart, nor bruise it with his horsemen.
This also cometh forth from the Lord of hosts, which is wonderful in counsel, and excellent in working.
Woe to the crown of pride, to the drunkards of Ephraim, whose glorious beauty is a fading flower, which are on the head of the fat valleys of them that are overcome with wine!
Behold, the Lord hath a mighty and strong one, which as a tempest of hail and a destroying storm, as a flood of mighty waters overflowing, shall cast down to the earth with the hand.
The crown of pride, the drunkards of Ephraim, shall be trodden under feet:
and the glorious beauty, which is on the head of the fat valley, shall be a fading flower, and as the hasty fruit before the summer; which when he that looketh upon it seeth, while it is yet in his hand he eateth it up.
In that day shall the Lord of hosts be for a crown of glory, and for a diadem of beauty, unto the residue of his people,
and for a spirit of judgment to him that sitteth in judgment, and for strength to them that turn the battle to the gate.

But the word of the Lord was unto them precept upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little; that they might go, and fall backward, and be broken, and snared, and taken.
Wherefore hear the word of the Lord, ye scornful men, that rule this people which is in Jerusalem.
Because ye have said, We have made a covenant with death, and with hell are we at agreement; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, it shall not come unto us: for we have made lies our refuge, and under falsehood have we hid ourselves:
therefore thus saith the Lord God, Behold, I lay in Zion for a foundation a stone, a tried stone, a precious corner stone, a sure foundation: he that believeth shall not make haste.

Now therefore be ye not mockers, lest your bands be made strong: for I have heard from the Lord God of hosts a consumption, even determined upon the whole earth.
Give ye ear, and hear my voice; hearken, and hear my speech.
Doth the plowman plow all day to sow? doth he open and break the clods of his ground?

This also cometh forth from the Lord of hosts, which is wonderful in counsel, and excellent in working.
Woe to the proud crown of the drunkards of Ephraim, And to the fading flower of its glorious beauty, Which is at the head of the fertile valley Of those who are overcome with wine!
Behold, the Lord has a strong and courageous agent; As a storm of hail, a tempest of destruction, Like a storm of mighty overflowing waters, He has set it down to the earth with His hand.
The proud crown of the drunkards of Ephraim is trodden under foot.
And the fading flower of its glorious beauty, Which is at the head of the fertile valley, Will be like the first-ripe fig prior to summer, Which one sees, And as soon as it is in his hand, He swallows it.
In that day Yahweh of hosts will become a beautiful crown And a glorious diadem to the remnant of His people;
A spirit of just judgment for him who sits in judgment, A might to those who turn back the onslaught at the gate.
And these also reel with wine and stagger from strong drink: The priest and the prophet reel with strong drink; They are swallowed up by wine, they stagger from strong drink; They reel while having visions; They totter when rendering a verdict.
For all the tables are full of filthy vomit, without a single clean place.
“Whom would He instruct in knowledge, And whom would He provide understanding about the report? Those just weaned from milk? Those just taken from the breast?
For He says, ‘Order on order, order on order, Line on line, line on line, A little here, a little there.’”
Indeed, He will speak to this people Through stammering lips and a foreign tongue,
He who said to them, “Here is rest, give rest to the weary,” And, “Here is repose,” but they would not listen.
So the word of Yahweh to them will be, “Order on order, order on order, Line on line, line on line, A little here, a little there,” That they may go and stumble backward, be broken, snared, and taken captive.
Therefore, hear the word of Yahweh, O scoffers, Who rule this people who are in Jerusalem,
Because you have said, “We have cut a covenant with death, And with Sheol we have made a pact. The overflowing scourge will not reach us when it passes by, For we have made falsehood our refuge and we have hidden ourselves with lying.”
Therefore thus says Lord Yahweh, “Behold, I am laying in Zion a stone, a tested stone, A costly cornerstone for the foundation, firmly placed. He who believes in it will not be disturbed.
I will make justice the measuring line And righteousness the level; Then hail will sweep away the refuge of falsehood, And the waters will overflow the secret place.
Your covenant with death will be canceled, And your pact with Sheol will not stand; When the overflowing scourge passes through, Then you will become its trampling place.
As often as it passes through, it will take you; For morning after morning it will pass through, anytime during the day or night, And it will be sheer terror to understand the report.”
The bed is too short on which to stretch out, And the blanket is too narrow to wrap oneself in.
For Yahweh will rise up as at Mount Perazim; He will be stirred up as in the valley of Gibeon, To work His work, His unusual work, And to labor in His labor, His exceptional labor.
So now do not carry on as scoffers, Lest your fetters be made stronger; For I have heard from Lord Yahweh of hosts Of complete destruction, one that is decreed, on all the earth.
Give ear and hear my voice, Pay attention and hear my words.
Does the farmer plow continually to plant seed? Does he continually turn and harrow his ground?
Does he not level its surface And sow dill and scatter cumin And plant wheat in rows, Barley in its place and rye within its area?
For his God disciplines and teaches him proper judgment.
For dill is not threshed with a threshing sledge, Nor is the wheel of a cart driven over cumin; But dill is beaten out with a staff, and cumin with a rod.
Grain for bread is crushed, But he does not continue to thresh it forever. Because the wheel of his cart and his horses eventually disturb it, He does not crush it longer.
This also comes from Yahweh of hosts, Who has made His counsel wonderful and His wisdom great.
Ah! The garland of the pride of the drunkards of Ephraim and the withering flower of the glory of his beauty, which is at the head of the rich valley, ones overcome with wine!
Look! The Lord has a mighty and strong one, like a rainstorm of hail, a wind storm of destruction, like a rainstorm of mighty overflowing waters, he will put them to the earth with his hand.
The garland of the pride of the drunkards of Ephraim will be trampled by feet,
and the withering flower of the glory of its beauty which is at the head of the rich valley will be like its early fig before summer, which the one who sees it swallows while it is still in his hand.
In that day, Yahweh of hosts will become a garland of glory and a diadem of beauty to the remnant of his people,
and a spirit of justice to the one who sits over judgment, and strength to those who turn back the battle at the gate.
And these also stagger because of wine and stagger because of strong drink; priest and prophet stagger because of strong drink; they are confused because of wine. They stagger because of strong drink; they err in vision. They stagger in the rendering of a decision,
for all the tables are full of disgusting vomit, with no place left.
To whom will he teach knowledge, and to whom will he explain the message? Those who are weaned from milk, those taken from the breast?
For it is blah-blah upon blah-blah, blah-blah upon blah-blah, gah-gah upon gah-gah, gah-gah upon gah-gah, a little here, a little there.
For he will speak with stammering and another tongue to this people,
to whom he has said, “This is rest; give rest to the weary; and this is repose”; yet they were not willing to hear.
And to them the word of Yahweh will be blah-blah upon blah-blah blah-blah upon blah-blah gah-gah upon gah-gah gah-gah upon gah-gah, a little here, a little there, so that they may go and stumble backward and be broken and ensnared and captured.
Therefore hear the word of Yahweh, men of mockery, rulers of these people in Jerusalem:
Because you have said, “We have made a covenant with death, and we have made an agreement with Sheol. The overwhelming flood, when it passes through, will not come to us, for we have made lies our refuge, and we have hidden ourselves in falsehood.”
Therefore the Lord Yahweh says this: “Look! I am laying a stone in Zion, a tested stone, a precious cornerstone, a founded foundation: ‘The one who trusts will not panic.’
And I will make justice the measuring line, and righteousness the plumb line; and hail will sweep away the refuge of lies, and waters will flood over the hiding place.
And your covenant with death will be annulled, and your agreement with Sheol will not stand; you will become a trampling place for the overwhelming flood when it passes through.
As often as it passes through, it will take you, for morning by morning it will pass through, in the day and in the night, and understanding the message will be only terror.”
For the bed is too short to stretch out on, and the covering is too narrow when wrapping oneself.
For Yahweh will rise up as at Mount Perazim; he will rave as in the valley at Gibeon to do his deed—his deed is strange— and to work his work—his work is alien!
And now you must not scoff, or your bonds will be strong, for I have heard from the Lord, Yahweh of hosts: complete destruction decreed upon all the land.
Listen, and hear my voice! Listen attentively, and hear my word!
Is it all day that the plowman plows, opens to sow seed, harrows his ground?
When he has leveled its surface, does he not scatter dill, and sow cumin seed, and plant wheat in planted rows, and barley in an appointed place, and spelt grain as its border?
And his God instructs him about the prescription; he teaches him.
For dill is not threshed with a threshing sledge, nor is a wheel of a utility cart rolled over cumin, but dill is beaten out with a stick, and cumin with a rod.
Grain is crushed fine, but certainly one does not thresh it forever; and one drives the wheel of his cart, but his horses do not crush it.
This also comes forth from Yahweh of hosts. He is wonderful in advice; he makes great wisdom.
Woe to the city of Samaria, surrounded by her rich valley—Samaria, the pride and delight of the drunkards of Israel! Woe to her fading beauty, the crowning glory of a nation of men lying drunk in the streets!
For the Lord will send a mighty army (the Assyrians) against you; like a mighty hailstorm he will burst upon you and dash you to the ground.
The proud city of Samaria—yes, the joy and delight of the drunkards of Israel—will be hurled to the ground and trampled beneath the enemies’ feet.
Once glorious, her fading beauty surrounded by a fertile valley will suddenly be gone, greedily snatched away as an early fig is hungrily snatched and gobbled up!
Then at last the Lord Almighty himself will be their crowning glory, the diadem of beauty to his people who are left.
He will give a longing for justice to your judges and great courage to your soldiers who are battling to the last before your gates.
But Jerusalem is now led by drunks! Her priests and prophets reel and stagger, making stupid errors and mistakes.
Their tables are covered with vomit; filth is everywhere.
“Who does Isaiah think he is,” the people say, “to speak to us like this! Are we little children, barely old enough to talk?
He tells us everything over and over again, a line at a time and in such simple words!”
But they won’t listen; the only language they can understand is punishment! So God will punish them by sending against them foreigners who speak strange gibberish! Only then will they listen to him!
They could have rest in their own land if they would obey him, if they were kind and good. He told them that, but they wouldn’t listen to him.
So the Lord will spell it out for them again, repeating it over and over in simple words whenever he can; yet over this simple, straightforward message they will stumble and fall and be broken, trapped and captured.
Therefore hear the word of the Lord, you scoffing rulers in Jerusalem:
You have struck a bargain with death, you say, and sold yourselves to the devil in exchange for his protection against the Assyrians. “They can never touch us,” you say, “for we are under the care of one who will deceive and fool them.”
But the Lord God says, “See, I am placing a Foundation Stone in Zion—a firm, tested, precious Cornerstone that is safe to build on. He who believes need never run away again.
I will take the line and plummet of justice to check the foundation wall you built; it looks so fine, but it is so weak a storm of hail will knock it down! The enemy will come like a flood and sweep it away, and you will be drowned.
I will cancel your agreement of compromise with death and the devil, so when the terrible enemy floods in, you will be trampled into the ground.
Again and again that flood will come and carry you off, until at last the unmixed horror of the truth of my warnings will finally dawn on you.”
The bed you have made is far too short to lie on; the blankets are too narrow to cover you.
The Lord will come suddenly and in anger, as at Mount Perazim and Gibeon, to do a strange, unusual thing—to destroy his own people!
So scoff no more, lest your punishment be made even greater, for the Lord God has plainly told me that he is determined to crush you.
Listen to me, listen as I plead: Does a farmer always plow and never sow? Is he forever harrowing the soil and never planting it?
Does he not finally plant his many kinds of grain, each in its own section of his land?
He knows just what to do, for God has made him see and understand.
He doesn’t thresh all grains the same. A sledge is never used on dill, but it is beaten with a stick. A threshing wheel is never rolled on cummin, but it is beaten softly with a flail.
Bread grain is easily crushed, so he doesn’t keep on pounding it.
The Lord Almighty is a wonderful teacher and gives the farmer wisdom.
Doom to the pretentious drunks of Ephraim, shabby and washed out and seedy— Tipsy, sloppy-fat, beer-bellied parodies of a proud and handsome past. Watch closely: God has someone picked out, someone tough and strong to flatten them. Like a hailstorm, like a hurricane, like a flash flood, one-handed he’ll throw them to the ground. Samaria, the party hat on Israel’s head, will be knocked off with one blow. It will disappear quicker than a piece of meat tossed to a dog.
At that time, God-of-the-Angel-Armies will be the beautiful crown on the head of what’s left of his people: Energy and insights of justice to those who guide and decide, strength and prowess to those who guard and protect.
These also, the priest and prophet, stagger from drink, weaving, falling-down drunks, Besotted with wine and whiskey, can’t see straight, can’t talk sense. Every table is covered with vomit. They live in vomit.
“Is that so? And who do you think you are to teach us? Who are you to lord it over us? We’re not babies in diapers to be talked down to by such as you— ‘Da, da, da, da, blah, blah, blah, blah. That’s a good little girl, that’s a good little boy.’”
But that’s exactly how you will be addressed. God will speak to this people In baby talk, one syllable at a time— and he’ll do it through foreign oppressors. He said before, “This is the time and place to rest, to give rest to the weary. This is the place to lay down your burden.” But they won’t listen.
So God will start over with the simple basics and address them in baby talk, one syllable at a time— “Da, da, da, da, blah, blah, blah, blah. That’s a good little girl, that’s a good little boy.” And like toddlers, they will get up and fall down, get bruised and confused and lost.
Now listen to God’s Message, you scoffers, you who rule this people in Jerusalem. You say, “We’ve taken out good life insurance. We’ve hedged all our bets, covered all our bases. No disaster can touch us. We’ve thought of everything. We’re advised by the experts. We’re set.”
But the Master, God, has something to say to this: “Watch closely. I’m laying a foundation in Zion, a solid granite foundation, squared and true. And this is the meaning of the stone: a trusting life won’t topple. I’ll make justice the measuring stick and righteousness the plumb line for the building. A hailstorm will knock down the shantytown of lies, and a flash flood will wash out the rubble.
“Then you’ll see that your precious life insurance policy wasn’t worth the paper it was written on. Your careful precautions against death were a pack of illusions and lies. When the disaster happens, you’ll be crushed by it. Every time disaster comes, you’ll be in on it— disaster in the morning, disaster at night.” Every report of disaster will send you cowering in terror. There will be no place where you can rest, nothing to hide under. God will rise to full stature, raging as he did long ago on Mount Perazim And in the valley of Gibeon against the Philistines. But this time it’s against you. Hard to believe, but true. Not what you’d expect, but it’s coming. Sober up, friends, and don’t scoff. Scoffing will just make it worse. I’ve heard the orders issued for destruction, orders from God-of-the-Angel-Armies—ending up in an international disaster. * * *
Listen to me now. Give me your closest attention. Do farmers plow and plow and do nothing but plow? Or harrow and harrow and do nothing but harrow? After they’ve prepared the ground, don’t they plant? Don’t they scatter dill and spread cumin, Plant wheat and barley in the fields and raspberries along the borders? They know exactly what to do and when to do it. Their God is their teacher.
And at the harvest, the delicate herbs and spices, the dill and cumin, are treated delicately. On the other hand, wheat is threshed and milled, but still not endlessly. The farmer knows how to treat each kind of grain. He’s learned it all from God-of-the-Angel-Armies, who knows everything about when and how and where.
Woe to the proud crown of the drunkards of Ephraim, whose glorious beauty is a fading flower which is at the head of the fertile valley of those who are overcome with wine!
See, the Lord has a mighty and strong one, as a tempest of hail and a destroying storm, as a flood of mighty overflowing waters, He has cast it down to the earth with His hand.
The proud crown of the drunkards of Ephraim is trodden under foot;
and the fading flower of its glorious beauty, which is at the head of the fertile valley, shall be like a first-ripe fig before the summer, which when one sees, while it is yet in his hand, he eats it up.
In that day the Lord of Hosts shall become a crown of glory and a diadem of beauty to the remnant of His people,
a spirit of justice for him who sits in judgment, and strength to those who turn away the battle at the gate.
But they also have erred through wine and stagger from strong drink; the priest and the prophet have erred through strong drink, they are confused by wine, they stagger from strong drink; they err while having visions, they stumble when rendering judgment.
For all the tables are full of vomit and filthiness so that there is no clean place.
“To whom shall He teach knowledge, and to whom shall He interpret the message? Those just weaned from the milk and drawn from the breasts?
For He says, ‘Precept upon precept, precept upon precept, line upon line, line upon line, here a little, there a little.’ ”
For with stammering lips and foreign tongue He will speak to this people,
He who said to them, “This is the rest. Give rest to the weary,” and, “This is repose,” yet they would not listen.
So the word of the Lord will be to them, “Precept upon precept, precept upon precept, line upon line, line upon line, here a little, there a little,” that they might go and fall backward, be broken, snared, and taken captive.
Therefore, hear the word of the Lord, O scoffers, who rule this people who are in Jerusalem,
because you have said, “We have made a covenant with death, and with hell we are in agreement. The overflowing scourge shall not come to us when it passes through, for we have made lies our refuge and under falsehood we have hid ourselves.”
Therefore, thus says the Lord God: See, I lay in Zion a stone, a tested stone, a precious cornerstone, firmly placed; he who believes shall not act hastily.
I shall make justice the measuring line and righteousness the plummet; then the hail shall sweep away the refuge of lies and the waters shall overflow the hiding place.
Your covenant with death shall be annulled, and your agreement with hell shall not stand; when the overflowing scourge passes through, then you shall be trodden down by it.
As often as it passes through, it shall seize you; for morning by morning it shall pass through, anytime by day or night. It shall be terror only to understand the report.
The bed is too short to stretch out, and the covering is too small to wrap oneself in it.
For the Lord shall rise up as at Mount Perazim, He shall be wrathful as in the Valley of Gibeon to do His work, His unusual work, and bring to pass His task, His exceptional task.
Now therefore, do not continue as mockers, lest your bonds be made stronger; for I have heard from the Lord God of Hosts of determined destruction upon the whole earth.
Give ear and hear my voice; listen and hear my speech.
Does the plowman plow all day to sow? Does he continually turn and break the clods of his ground?
Does he not level its surface and sow dill and scatter the cumin and plant wheat in rows, barley in its place and the rye within its area?
For his God instructs and teaches him appropriately.
For the dill is not threshed with a threshing instrument, nor is a cartwheel driven over the cumin; but the dill is beaten out with a staff, and the cumin with a rod.
Grain for bread is crushed; so he does not continue to thresh it forever, nor break it with the wheel of his cart, nor crush it with his horsemen.
This also comes from the Lord of Hosts, who is wonderful in counsel and excellent in wisdom.
How horrible it will be for the arrogant drunks of Ephraim. Their glorious beauty is like a withered flower. They are at the entrance to a fertile valley where they lie drunk from wine.
Adonay has one who is strong and powerful. He is like a hailstorm, a destructive wind. He is like a thunderstorm, an overwhelming flood. He will throw them to the ground forcefully.
The arrogant drunks of Ephraim will be trampled underfoot.
Their glorious beauty is like a withered flower. They are at the entrance to a fertile valley. They will be like figs that ripened early. As soon as someone sees them, they will be taken and eaten.
When that day comes, Yahweh Tsebaoth will be like a glorious crown for his few remaining people.
He will give a spirit of justice to those who judge. He will give strength to those who defend the city gates in battle.
Priests and prophets stagger from wine and wobble from too much liquor. They stagger from too much liquor and become confused from too much wine. They wobble because of their liquor. They stagger when they see visions. They swerve as they judge.
All the tables are covered with vomit and excrement. There isn’t a clean place left.
To whom will they make the message understood? To whom will they explain this message? To children just weaned from milk? To those just taken from their mother’s breasts?
They speak utter nonsense.
Yahweh will speak to these people. He will mock them by speaking in a foreign language.
He will say to them, “This is a place for comfort. This is a place of rest for those who are tired. This is a place for them to rest.” But they weren’t willing to listen.
Yahweh speaks utter nonsense to them. That is why they will fall backwards. That is why they will be hurt, trapped, and captured.
So hear the word of Yahweh, you foolish talkers who rule the people in Jerusalem.
You say, “We made a treaty with death and an agreement with the grave. When the overwhelming disaster passes by, it won’t matter to us, because we have taken refuge in our lies, and falsehood is our hiding place.”
This is what Adonay Yahweh says: I am going to lay a rock in Zion, a rock that has been tested, a precious cornerstone, a solid foundation. Whoever believes in him will not worry.
I will make justice a measuring line and righteousness a plumb line. Hail will sweep away your refuge of lies, and floodwaters will wash away your hiding place.
Your treaty with death will be wiped away. Your agreement with the grave will not stand. When the overwhelming disaster passes by, you will be trampled by it.
Each time it passes by it will take you. It will pass by morning after morning, during the day and during the night. Understanding this message brings only terror.
The bed is too short to stretch out on. The blanket is too narrow to serve as a cover.
Yahweh will rise as he did on Mount Perazim. He will wake up as he did in Gibeon Valley. He will do his work, his unexpected work, and perform his deeds, his mysterious deeds.
Now stop laughing, or your chains will be tightened, because I have heard that Adonay Yahweh Tsebaoth has finally determined to destroy the whole land.
Open your ears, and listen to me! Pay attention, and hear me!
Does a farmer go on plowing every day so he can plant? Does he continue to break up the soil and make furrows in the ground?
When he has smoothed its surface, doesn’t he scatter black cumin seed and plant cumin? Doesn’t he plant wild wheat in rows? Doesn’t he put barley in its own area and winter wheat at its borders?
Yahweh will guide him in judgment, and his Elohim will teach him.
Black cumin isn’t threshed with a sledge, and wagon wheels aren’t rolled over cumin. Black cumin is beaten with a rod and cumin with a stick.
Grain is ground into flour, but the grinding eventually stops. It will be threshed. The wheels of his cart will roll over it, but his horses won’t crush it.
All of this has come from Yahweh Tsebaoth. His counsel is wonderful, and his wisdom is great.
Ah! majestic garland of the drunkards of Ephraim, Fading blooms of his glorious beauty, at the head of the fertile valley, upon those stupefied with wine.
See, the Lord has a strong one, a mighty one, who, like an onslaught of hail, a destructive storm, Like a flood of water, great and overflowing, levels to the ground with violence;
With feet that will trample the majestic garland of the drunkards of Ephraim.
The fading blooms of his glorious beauty at the head of the fertile valley Will be like an early fig before summer: whoever sees it, swallows it as soon as it is in hand.
On that day the Lord of hosts will be a glorious crown And a brilliant diadem for the remnant of his people,
A spirit of judgment for the one who sits in judgment, And strength for those who turn back the battle at the gate.
But these also stagger from wine and stumble from strong drink: Priest and prophet stagger from strong drink, overpowered by wine; They are confused by strong drink, they stagger in their visions, they totter when giving judgment.
Yes, all the tables are covered with vomit, with filth, and no place left clean.
“To whom would he impart knowledge? To whom would he convey the message? To those just weaned from milk, those weaned from the breast?
For he says, ‘Command on command, command on command, rule on rule, rule on rule, here a little, there a little!’”
Yes, with stammering lips and in a strange language he will speak to this people,
to whom he said: “This is the resting place, give rest to the weary; And this is the place of repose”— but they refused to hear.
So for them the word of the Lord shall be: “Command on command, command on command, Rule on rule, rule on rule, here a little, there a little!” So that when they walk, they shall stumble backward, broken, ensnared, and captured.
Therefore, hear the word of the Lord, you scoffers, who rule this people in Jerusalem:
You have declared, “We have made a covenant with death, with Sheol we have made a pact; When the raging flood passes through, it will not reach us; For we have made lies our refuge, and in falsehood we have found a hiding place,”—
Therefore, thus says the Lord God: See, I am laying a stone in Zion, a stone that has been tested, A precious cornerstone as a sure foundation; whoever puts faith in it will not waver.
I will make judgment a measuring line, and justice a level.— Hail shall sweep away the refuge of lies, and waters shall flood the hiding place.
Your covenant with death shall be canceled and your pact with Sheol shall not stand. When the raging flood passes through, you shall be beaten down by it.
Whenever it passes, it shall seize you; morning after morning it shall pass, by day and by night. Sheer terror to impart the message!
For the bed shall be too short to stretch out in, and the cover too narrow to wrap in.
For the Lord shall rise up as on Mount Perazim, bestir himself as in the Valley of Gibeon, To carry out his work—strange his work! to perform his deed—alien his deed!
Now, cease scoffing, lest your bonds be tightened, For I have heard a decree of destruction from the Lord, the God of hosts, for the whole land.
Give ear and hear my voice, pay attention and hear my word:
Is the plowman forever plowing in order to sow, always loosening and harrowing the field?
When he has leveled the surface, does he not scatter caraway and sow cumin, Put in wheat and barley, with spelt as its border?
His God has taught him this rule, he has instructed him.
For caraway is not threshed with a sledge, nor does a cartwheel roll over cumin. But caraway is beaten out with a staff, and cumin with a rod.
Grain is crushed for bread, but not forever; though he thresh it thoroughly, and drive his cartwheel and horses over it, he does not pulverize it.
This too comes from the Lord of hosts; wonderful is his counsel and great his wisdom.
Woe to the proud crown of the habitually drunk of Ephraim, And to the fading flower of its glorious beauty, Which is at the head of the fertile valley Of those who are overcome with wine!
Behold, the Lord has a strong and mighty agent; As a storm of hail, a tempest of destruction, Like a storm of mighty overflowing waters, He has thrown it down to the earth with His hand.
The splendid crown of the habitually drunk of Ephraim is trampled underfoot.
And the fading flower of its glorious beauty, Which is at the head of the fertile valley, Will be like the first-ripe fig prior to the summer, Which one sees, And as soon as it is in his hand, He swallows it.
On that day the Lord of armies will become a beautiful crown And a glorious wreath to the remnant of His people;
A spirit of justice for him who sits in judgment, A strength to those who repel the onslaught at the gate.
And these also reel with wine and stagger from intoxicating drink: The priest and the prophet reel with intoxicating drink, They are confused by wine, they stagger from intoxicating drink; They reel while having visions, They stagger when rendering a verdict.
For all the tables are full of filthy vomit, without a single clean place.
“To whom would He teach knowledge, And to whom would He interpret the message? Those just weaned from milk? Those just taken from the breast?
For He says, ‘Order on order, order on order, Line on line, line on line, A little here, a little there.’”
Indeed, He will speak to this people Through stammering lips and a foreign tongue,
He who said to them, “This is the place of quiet, give rest to the weary,” And, “This is the resting place,” but they would not listen.
So the word of the Lord to them will be, “Order on order, order on order, Line on line, line on line, A little here, a little there,” That they may go and stumble backward, be broken, snared, and taken captive.
Therefore, hear the word of the Lord, you scoffers, Who rule this people who are in Jerusalem,
Because you have said, “We have made a covenant with death, And with Sheol we have made a pact. The gushing flood will not reach us when it passes by, Because we have made falsehood our refuge and we have concealed ourselves with deception.”
Therefore this is what the Lord God says: “Behold, I am laying a stone in Zion, a tested stone, A precious cornerstone for the foundation, firmly placed. The one who believes in it will not be disturbed.
I will make justice the measuring line And righteousness the level; Then hail will sweep away the refuge of lies, And the waters will overflow the secret place.
Your covenant with death will be canceled, And your pact with Sheol will not stand; When the gushing flood passes through, Then you will become its trampling ground.
As often as it passes through, it will seize you; For morning after morning it will pass through, anytime during the day or night, And it will be sheer terror to understand what it means.”
The bed is too short on which to stretch out, And the blanket is too small to wrap oneself in.
For the Lord will rise up as at Mount Perazim, He will be stirred up as in the Valley of Gibeon, To do His task, His unusual task, And to work His work, His extraordinary work.
And now do not carry on as scoffers, Or your shackles will be made stronger; For I have heard from the Lord God of armies Of decisive destruction on all the earth.
Listen and hear my voice, Pay attention and hear my words.
Does the farmer plow continually to plant seed? Does he continually turn and break up his ground?
Does he not level its surface And sow dill and scatter cumin And plant wheat in rows, Barley in its place and rye within its area?
For his God instructs and teaches him properly.
For dill is not threshed with a threshing sledge, Nor is the cartwheel driven over cumin; But dill is beaten out with a rod, and cumin with a club.
Grain for bread is crushed, Indeed, he does not continue to thresh it forever. Because the wheel of his cart and his horses eventually damage it, He does not thresh it longer.
This also comes from the Lord of armies, Who has made His counsel wonderful and His wisdom great.
Woe to the proud crown of the drunkards of Ephraim, And to the fading flower of its glorious beauty, Which is at the head of the fertile valley Of those who are overcome with wine!
Behold, the Lord has a strong and mighty agent; As a storm of hail, a tempest of destruction, Like a storm of mighty overflowing waters, He has cast it down to the earth with His hand.
The proud crown of the drunkards of Ephraim is trodden under foot.
And the fading flower of its glorious beauty, Which is at the head of the fertile valley, Will be like the first-ripe fig prior to summer, Which one sees, And as soon as it is in his hand, He swallows it.
In that day the Lord of hosts will become a beautiful crown And a glorious diadem to the remnant of His people;
A spirit of justice for him who sits in judgment, A strength to those who repel the onslaught at the gate.
And these also reel with wine and stagger from strong drink: The priest and the prophet reel with strong drink, They are confused by wine, they stagger from strong drink; They reel while having visions, They totter when rendering judgment.
For all the tables are full of filthy vomit, without a single clean place.
“To whom would He teach knowledge, And to whom would He interpret the message? Those just weaned from milk? Those just taken from the breast?
“For He says, ‘Order on order, order on order, Line on line, line on line, A little here, a little there.’”
Indeed, He will speak to this people Through stammering lips and a foreign tongue,
He who said to them, “Here is rest, give rest to the weary,” And, “Here is repose,” but they would not listen.
So the word of the Lord to them will be, “Order on order, order on order, Line on line, line on line, A little here, a little there,” That they may go and stumble backward, be broken, snared and taken captive.
Therefore, hear the word of the Lord, O scoffers, Who rule this people who are in Jerusalem,
Because you have said, “We have made a covenant with death, And with Sheol we have made a pact. The overwhelming scourge will not reach us when it passes by, For we have made falsehood our refuge and we have concealed ourselves with deception.”
Therefore thus says the Lord God, “Behold, I am laying in Zion a stone, a tested stone, A costly cornerstone for the foundation, firmly placed. He who believes in it will not be disturbed.
“I will make justice the measuring line And righteousness the level; Then hail will sweep away the refuge of lies And the waters will overflow the secret place.
“Your covenant with death will be canceled, And your pact with Sheol will not stand; When the overwhelming scourge passes through, Then you become its trampling place.
“As often as it passes through, it will seize you; For morning after morning it will pass through, anytime during the day or night, And it will be sheer terror to understand what it means.”
The bed is too short on which to stretch out, And the blanket is too small to wrap oneself in.
For the Lord will rise up as at Mount Perazim, He will be stirred up as in the valley of Gibeon, To do His task, His unusual task, And to work His work, His extraordinary work.
And now do not carry on as scoffers, Or your fetters will be made stronger; For I have heard from the Lord God of hosts Of decisive destruction on all the earth.
Give ear and hear my voice, Listen and hear my words.
Does the farmer plow continually to plant seed? Does he continually turn and harrow the ground?
Does he not level its surface And sow dill and scatter cummin And plant wheat in rows, Barley in its place and rye within its area?
For his God instructs and teaches him properly.
For dill is not threshed with a threshing sledge, Nor is the cartwheel driven over cummin; But dill is beaten out with a rod, and cummin with a club.
Grain for bread is crushed, Indeed, he does not continue to thresh it forever. Because the wheel of his cart and his horses eventually damage it, He does not thresh it longer.
This also comes from the Lord of hosts, Who has made His counsel wonderful and His wisdom great.
Woe to the proud garlands of Ephraim’s drunkards and to the fading flowers of its glorious beauty, the crowning glory of a nation of men overcome with wine and lying in the streets.
But behold, the Lord has one in his service who is mighty and strong, and who, like a storm of hail, like a destroying tempest, like a torrent of rain and raging flood waters, will hurl them violently to the ground.
The majestic garlands of Ephraim’s drunkards will be trampled underfoot.
And the fading blooms of its glorious beauty, at the head of the lush valley, will be like early figs before the summer; whoever sees them will pluck them and immediately consume them.
On that day the Lord of hosts will be a crown of glory and a beautiful diadem to the remnant of his people,
a spirit of justice to the one who sits in judgment, and a spirit of strength to those who repel the enemy at the city gates.
These also stagger from wine and stumble due to strong drink. Priests and prophets are confused because of liquor; alcohol leaves them unable to think clearly or to pronounce fair judgments.
Every table is covered with filthy vomit; no place is clean.
“To whom will the prophet impart knowledge? To whom will he explain his message? To babies who are newly weaned, to those just taken from the breast?
With him we are given command after command, command after command, rule after rule, rule after rule, here a little, there a little.”
Now, with stammering lips and in an alien tongue, he will speak to this people,
to whom he has said, “This is the place for rest; give rest to the weary. This is the place for repose.” However, they would not listen.
Therefore, to them the word of the Lord will be, “Command after command, command after command, rule after rule, rule after rule, here a little, there a little.”
Therefore, listen to the word of the Lord, you arrogant rulers of this people in Jerusalem.
Proudly you have boasted, “We have made a covenant with death and entered into a pact with the netherworld. And so, when the overwhelming scourge occurs, it will not afflict us. For we have made lies our refuge and taken shelter in falsehood.”
Therefore, the Lord God has this to say to you in response: Behold, I am laying a stone in Zion, a stone that has been tested, a precious cornerstone as a firm foundation; those who place their trust in it will not falter.
And I will make justice the measuring line, with righteousness as the plumb line. Hail will sweep away the refuge of lies, and flood waters will submerge your hiding place.
Then your covenant with death will be annulled and your pact with Sheol will not survive. When the raging waters roar forth, you will be overwhelmed by them.
As often as the flood sweeps through, it will engulf you, sweeping over you day and night, as terror conveys the message clearly.
For your bed will be too short to enable you to stretch out, and the blanket will be too narrow to cover you sufficiently.
Then the Lord will rise up as on Mount Perazim, and he will rage as he did in the Valley of Gibeon, to accomplish his work, his mysterious work, and to perform his deed, his strange deed.
Therefore, cease your arrogance, or your bonds will be further tightened. For the Lord God of hosts has revealed to me the destruction he has decreed for the entire earth.
Listen carefully to my words; pay close attention to what I have to say.
Does the plowman spend his entire time plowing, breaking up and harrowing his land?
Once he has leveled its surface, does he not scatter the fennel and sow cummin, and plant wheat and barley, with spelt around the borders?
God has instructed him in this and trained him correctly.
Fennel must not be threshed with a sledge, nor is a cartwheel rolled over cummin.
Grain must be crushed for bread, but it cannot be done so to excess; one maneuvers the cartwheels and the horses but is careful not to grind it too fine.
All this knowledge comes from the Lord of hosts whose counsel is wonderful and whose wisdom is great.
How terrible it will be for Samaria, the pride of Israel’s drunken people! That beautiful crown of flowers is just a dying plant set on a hill above a rich valley where drunkards live.
Look, the Lord has someone who is strong and powerful. Like a storm of hail and strong wind, like a sudden flood of water pouring over the country, he will throw Samaria down to the ground.
That city, the pride of Israel’s drunken people, will be trampled underfoot.
That beautiful crown of flowers is just a dying plant set on a hill above a rich valley. That city will be like the first fig of summer. Anyone who sees it quickly picks it and eats it.
At that time the Lord All-Powerful will be like a beautiful crown, like a wonderful crown of flowers for his people who are left alive.
Then he will give wisdom to the judges who must decide cases and strength to those who battle at the city gate.
But now those leaders are drunk with wine; they stumble from drinking too much beer. The priests and prophets are drunk with beer and are filled with wine. They stumble from too much beer. The prophets are drunk when they see their visions; the judges stumble when they make their decisions.
Every table is covered with vomit, so there is not a clean place anywhere.
The Lord is trying to teach the people a lesson; he is trying to make them understand his teachings. But the people are like babies too old for breast milk, like those who no longer nurse at their mother’s breast.
So they make fun of the Lord’s prophet and say: “A command here, a command there. A rule here, a rule there. A little lesson here, a little lesson there.”
So the Lord will use strange words and foreign languages to speak to these people.
God said to them, “Here is a place of rest; let the tired people come and rest. This is the place of peace.” But the people would not listen.
So the words of the Lord will be, “A command here, a command there. A rule here, a rule there. A little lesson here, a little lesson there.” They will fall back and be defeated; they will be trapped and captured.
So listen to the Lord’s message, you who brag, you leaders in Jerusalem.
You say, “We have made an agreement with death; we have a contract with death. When terrible punishment passes by, it won’t hurt us. Our lies will keep us safe, and our tricks will hide us.”
Because of these things, this is what the Lord God says: “I will put a stone in the ground in Jerusalem, a tested stone. Everything will be built on this important and precious rock. Anyone who trusts in it will never be disappointed.
I will use justice as a measuring line and goodness as the standard. The lies you hide behind will be destroyed as if by hail. They will be washed away as if in a flood.
Your agreement with death will be erased; your contract with death will not help you. When terrible punishment comes, you will be crushed by it.
Whenever punishment comes, it will take you away. It will come morning after morning; it will defeat you by day and by night. Those who understand this punishment will be terrified.”
You will be like the person who tried to sleep on a bed that was too short and with a blanket that was too narrow to wrap around himself.
The Lord will fight as he did at Mount Perazim. He will be angry as he was in the Valley of Gibeon. He will do his work, his strange work. He will finish his job, his strange job.
Now, you must not make fun of these things, or the ropes around you will become tighter. The Lord God All-Powerful has told me how the whole earth will be destroyed.
Listen closely to what I tell you; listen carefully to what I say.
A farmer does not plow his field all the time; he does not go on working the soil.
He makes the ground flat and smooth. Then he plants the dill and scatters the cumin. He plants the wheat in rows, the barley in its special place, and other wheat as a border around the field.
His God teaches him and shows him the right way.
A farmer doesn’t use heavy boards to crush dill; he doesn’t use a wagon wheel to crush cumin. He uses a small stick to break open the dill, and with a stick he opens the cumin.
The grain is ground to make bread. People do not ruin it by crushing it forever. The farmer separates the wheat from the chaff with his cart, but he does not let his horses grind it.
This lesson also comes from the Lord All-Powerful, who gives wonderful advice, who is very wise.
The splendid crown of Ephraim’s drunkards is doomed, the withering flower, its beautiful splendor, situated at the head of a rich valley, the crown of those overcome with wine.
Look, the Lord sends a strong, powerful one. With the force of a hailstorm or a destructive windstorm, with the might of a driving, torrential rainstorm, he will knock that crown to the ground with his hand.
The splendid crown of Ephraim’s drunkards will be trampled underfoot.
The withering flower, its beautiful splendor, situated at the head of a rich valley, will be like an early fig before harvest— as soon as someone notices it, he grabs it and swallows it.
At that time the Lord of Heaven’s Armies will become a beautiful crown and a splendid diadem for the remnant of his people.
He will give discernment to the one who makes judicial decisions, and strength to those who defend the city from attackers.
Even these men stagger because of wine; they stumble around because of beer— priests and prophets stagger because of beer, they are confused because of wine, they stumble around because of beer; they stagger while seeing prophetic visions, they totter while making legal decisions.
Indeed, all the tables are covered with vomit, with filth, leaving no clean place.
Who is the Lord trying to teach? To whom is he explaining a message? To those just weaned from milk! To those just taken from their mother’s breast!
Indeed, they will hear meaningless gibberish, senseless babbling, a syllable here, a syllable there.
For with mocking lips and a foreign tongue he will speak to these people.
In the past he said to them, “This is where security can be found. Provide security for the one who is exhausted. This is where rest can be found.” But they refused to listen.
So the Lord’s message to them will sound like meaningless gibberish, senseless babbling, a syllable here, a syllable there. As a result, they will fall on their backsides when they try to walk, and be injured, ensnared, and captured.
Therefore, listen to the Lord’s message, you who mock, you rulers of these people who reside in Jerusalem.
For you say, “We have made a treaty with death, with Sheol we have made an agreement. When the overwhelming judgment sweeps by it will not reach us. For we have made a lie our refuge, we have hidden ourselves in a deceitful word.”
Therefore, this is what the Sovereign Lord, says: “Look, I am laying a stone in Zion, an approved stone, set in place as a precious cornerstone for the foundation. The one who maintains his faith will not panic.
I will make justice the measuring line, fairness the plumb line; hail will sweep away the unreliable refuge, the floodwaters will overwhelm the hiding place.
Your treaty with death will be dissolved; your agreement with Sheol will not last. When the overwhelming judgment sweeps by, you will be overrun by it.
Whenever it sweeps by, it will overtake you; indeed, every morning it will sweep by, it will come through during the day and the night.” When this announcement is understood, it will cause nothing but terror.
For the bed is too short to stretch out on, and the blanket is too narrow to wrap around oneself.
For the Lord will rise up, as he did at Mount Perazim; he will rouse himself, as he did in the Valley of Gibeon, to accomplish his work, his peculiar work, to perform his task, his strange task.
So now, do not mock, or your chains will become heavier! For I have heard a message about decreed destruction, from the Sovereign Lord of Heaven’s Armies against the entire land.
Pay attention and listen to my message. Be attentive and listen to what I have to say!
Does a farmer just keep on plowing at planting time? Does he keep breaking up and harrowing his ground?
Once he has leveled its surface, does he not scatter the seed of the caraway plant, sow the seed of the cumin plant, and plant the wheat, barley, and grain in their designated places?
His God instructs him; he teaches him the principles of agriculture.
Certainly caraway seed is not threshed with a sledge, nor is the wheel of a cart rolled over cumin seed. Certainly caraway seed is beaten with a stick, and cumin seed with a flail.
Grain is crushed, though one certainly does not thresh it forever. The wheel of one’s wagon rolls over it, but his horses do not crush it.
This also comes from the Lord of Heaven’s Armies, who gives supernatural guidance and imparts great wisdom.
How terrible it will be for the city of Samaria! It sits on a hill like a wreath of flowers. The leaders of Ephraim are drunk. They take pride in their city. It sits above a valley that has rich soil. How terrible it will be for the glorious beauty of that fading flower!
The Lord will bring the strong and powerful king of Assyria against Samaria. The Lord will throw that city down to the ground with great force. It will be like a hailstorm. It will be like a wind that destroys everything. It will be like a driving rain and a flooding storm.
That city is like a wreath. The leaders of Ephraim are drunk. They take pride in their city. But its enemies will walk all over it.
It sits on a hill above a rich valley. The city is like a wreath of flowers whose glorious beauty is fading away. But it will become like figs that are ripe before harvest. As soon as people see them, they pick them and swallow them.
At that time the Lord who rules over all will be like a glorious crown. He will be like a beautiful wreath for those of his people who will be left alive.
He will help those who are fair when they judge. He will give strength to those who turn back their enemies at the city gate.
Israel’s leaders are drunk from wine. They can’t walk straight. They are drunk from beer. They are unsteady on their feet. Priests and prophets drink beer. They can’t walk straight. They are mixed up from drinking too much wine. They drink too much beer. They are unsteady on their feet. The prophets see visions but don’t really understand them. The priests aren’t able to make good decisions.
They throw up. All the tables are covered with the mess they’ve made. There isn’t one spot on the tables that isn’t smelly and dirty.
The Lord’s people are making fun of him. They say, “Who does he think he’s trying to teach? Who does he think he’s explaining his message to? Is it to children who do not need their mother’s milk anymore? Is it to those who have just been taken from her breast?
Here is how he teaches. Do this and do that. There is a rule for this and a rule for that. Learn a little here and learn a little there.”
All right then, these people won’t listen to me. So God will speak to them. He will speak by using people who speak unfamiliar languages. He will speak by using the mouths of strangers.
He said to his people, “I am offering you a resting place. Let those who are tired rest.” He continued, “I am offering you a place of peace and quiet.” But they wouldn’t listen.
So then, here is what the Lord’s message will become to them. Do this and do that. There is a rule for this and a rule for that. Learn a little here and learn a little there. So when they try to go forward, they’ll fall back and be wounded. They’ll be trapped and captured.
Listen to the Lord’s message, you who make fun of the truth. Listen, you who rule over these people in Jerusalem.
You brag, “We have entered into a covenant with the place of the dead. We have made an agreement with the grave. When a terrible plague comes to punish us, it can’t touch us. That’s because we depend on lies to keep us safe. We hide behind what isn’t true.”
So the Lord and King speaks. He says, “Look! I am laying a stone in Zion. It is a stone that has been tested. It is the most important stone for a firm foundation. The one who depends on that stone will never be shaken.
I will use a measuring line to prove that you have not been fair. I will use a plumb line to prove that you have not done what is right. Hail will sweep away the lies you depend on to keep you safe. Water will flood your hiding place.
Your covenant with death will be called off. The agreement you made with the place of the dead will not stand. When the terrible plague comes to punish you, you will be struck down by it.
As often as it comes, it will carry you away. Morning after morning, day and night, it will come to punish you.” If you understand this message, it will bring you absolute terror.
You will be like someone whose bed is too short to lie down on. You will be like those whose blankets are too small to wrap themselves in.
The Lord will rise up to judge, just as he did at Mount Perazim. He will get up to act, just as he did in the Valley of Gibeon. He’ll do his work, but it will be strange work. He’ll carry out his task, but it will be an unexpected one.
Now stop making fun of me. If you don’t, your chains will become heavier. The Lord who rules over all has spoken to me. The Lord has told me he has ordered that the whole land be destroyed.
Listen and hear my voice. Pay attention to what I’m saying.
When a farmer plows in order to plant, does he plow without stopping? Does he keep on breaking up the soil and making the field level?
When he’s made the surface even, doesn’t he plant caraway seeds? Doesn’t he scatter cumin seeds? Doesn’t he plant wheat in its proper place? Doesn’t he plant barley where it belongs? Doesn’t he plant spelt along the edge of the field?
His God directs him. He teaches him the right way to do his work.
Caraway seeds are beaten out with a rod. They aren’t separated out under a threshing sled. Cumin seeds are beaten out with a stick. The wheel of a cart isn’t rolled over them.
Grain must be ground up to make bread. A farmer separates it out. But he doesn’t go on doing it forever. He drives the wheels of a threshing cart over it. But he doesn’t use horses to grind the grain.
All these insights come from the Lord who rules over all. His advice is wonderful. His wisdom is glorious.
Woe to that wreath, the pride of Ephraim’s drunkards, to the fading flower, his glorious beauty, set on the head of a fertile valley— to that city, the pride of those laid low by wine!
See, the Lord has one who is powerful and strong. Like a hailstorm and a destructive wind, like a driving rain and a flooding downpour, he will throw it forcefully to the ground.
That wreath, the pride of Ephraim’s drunkards, will be trampled underfoot.
That fading flower, his glorious beauty, set on the head of a fertile valley, will be like figs ripe before harvest— as soon as people see them and take them in hand, they swallow them.
In that day the Lord Almighty will be a glorious crown, a beautiful wreath for the remnant of his people.
He will be a spirit of justice to the one who sits in judgment, a source of strength to those who turn back the battle at the gate.
And these also stagger from wine and reel from beer: Priests and prophets stagger from beer and are befuddled with wine; they reel from beer, they stagger when seeing visions, they stumble when rendering decisions.
All the tables are covered with vomit and there is not a spot without filth.
“Who is it he is trying to teach? To whom is he explaining his message? To children weaned from their milk, to those just taken from the breast?
For it is: Do this, do that, a rule for this, a rule for that; a little here, a little there.”
Very well then, with foreign lips and strange tongues God will speak to this people,
to whom he said, “This is the resting place, let the weary rest”; and, “This is the place of repose”— but they would not listen.
So then, the word of the Lord to them will become: Do this, do that, a rule for this, a rule for that; a little here, a little there— so that as they go they will fall backward; they will be injured and snared and captured.
Therefore hear the word of the Lord, you scoffers who rule this people in Jerusalem.
You boast, “We have entered into a covenant with death, with the realm of the dead we have made an agreement. When an overwhelming scourge sweeps by, it cannot touch us, for we have made a lie our refuge and falsehood our hiding place.”
So this is what the Sovereign Lord says: “See, I lay a stone in Zion, a tested stone, a precious cornerstone for a sure foundation; the one who relies on it will never be stricken with panic.
I will make justice the measuring line and righteousness the plumb line; hail will sweep away your refuge, the lie, and water will overflow your hiding place.
Your covenant with death will be annulled; your agreement with the realm of the dead will not stand. When the overwhelming scourge sweeps by, you will be beaten down by it.
As often as it comes it will carry you away; morning after morning, by day and by night, it will sweep through.” The understanding of this message will bring sheer terror.
The bed is too short to stretch out on, the blanket too narrow to wrap around you.
The Lord will rise up as he did at Mount Perazim, he will rouse himself as in the Valley of Gibeon— to do his work, his strange work, and perform his task, his alien task.
Now stop your mocking, or your chains will become heavier; the Lord, the Lord Almighty, has told me of the destruction decreed against the whole land.
Listen and hear my voice; pay attention and hear what I say.
When a farmer plows for planting, does he plow continually? Does he keep on breaking up and working the soil?
When he has leveled the surface, does he not sow caraway and scatter cumin? Does he not plant wheat in its place, barley in its plot, and spelt in its field?
His God instructs him and teaches him the right way.
Caraway is not threshed with a sledge, nor is the wheel of a cart rolled over cumin; caraway is beaten out with a rod, and cumin with a stick.
Grain must be ground to make bread; so one does not go on threshing it forever. The wheels of a threshing cart may be rolled over it, but one does not use horses to grind grain.
All this also comes from the Lord Almighty, whose plan is wonderful, whose wisdom is magnificent.
Woe to that wreath, the pride of Ephraim’s drunkards, to the fading flower, his glorious beauty, set on the head of a fertile valley – to that city, the pride of those laid low by wine!
See, the Lord has one who is powerful and strong. Like a hailstorm and a destructive wind, like a driving rain and a flooding downpour, he will throw it forcefully to the ground.

Woe to the crown of pride, to the drunkards of Ephraim, Whose glorious beauty is a fading flower Which is at the head of the verdant valleys, To those who are overcome with wine!
Behold, the Lord has a mighty and strong one, Like a tempest of hail and a destroying storm, Like a flood of mighty waters overflowing, Who will bring them down to the earth with His hand.
The crown of pride, the drunkards of Ephraim, Will be trampled underfoot;
And the glorious beauty is a fading flower Which is at the head of the verdant valley, Like the first fruit before the summer, Which an observer sees; He eats it up while it is still in his hand.
In that day the Lord of hosts will be For a crown of glory and a diadem of beauty To the remnant of His people,
For a spirit of justice to him who sits in judgment, And for strength to those who turn back the battle at the gate.
But they also have erred through wine, And through intoxicating drink are out of the way; The priest and the prophet have erred through intoxicating drink, They are swallowed up by wine, They are out of the way through intoxicating drink; They err in vision, they stumble in judgment.
For all tables are full of vomit and filth; No place is clean.
“Whom will he teach knowledge? And whom will he make to understand the message? Those just weaned from milk? Those just drawn from the breasts?
For precept must be upon precept, precept upon precept, Line upon line, line upon line, Here a little, there a little.”
For with stammering lips and another tongue He will speak to this people,
To whom He said, “This is the rest with which You may cause the weary to rest,” And, “This is the refreshing”; Yet they would not hear.
But the word of the Lord was to them, “Precept upon precept, precept upon precept, Line upon line, line upon line, Here a little, there a little,” That they might go and fall backward, and be broken And snared and caught.
Therefore hear the word of the Lord, you scornful men, Who rule this people who are in Jerusalem,
Because you have said, “We have made a covenant with death, And with Sheol we are in agreement. When the overflowing scourge passes through, It will not come to us, For we have made lies our refuge, And under falsehood we have hidden ourselves.”
Therefore thus says the Lord God: “Behold, I lay in Zion a stone for a foundation, A tried stone, a precious cornerstone, a sure foundation; Whoever believes will not act hastily.
Also I will make justice the measuring line, And righteousness the plummet; The hail will sweep away the refuge of lies, And the waters will overflow the hiding place.
Your covenant with death will be annulled, And your agreement with Sheol will not stand; When the overflowing scourge passes through, Then you will be trampled down by it.
As often as it goes out it will take you; For morning by morning it will pass over, And by day and by night; It will be a terror just to understand the report.”
For the bed is too short to stretch out on, And the covering so narrow that one cannot wrap himself in it.
For the Lord will rise up as at Mount Perazim, He will be angry as in the Valley of Gibeon— That He may do His work, His awesome work, And bring to pass His act, His unusual act.
Now therefore, do not be mockers, Lest your bonds be made strong; For I have heard from the Lord God of hosts, A destruction determined even upon the whole earth.
Give ear and hear my voice, Listen and hear my speech.
Does the plowman keep plowing all day to sow? Does he keep turning his soil and breaking the clods?
When he has leveled its surface, Does he not sow the black cummin And scatter the cummin, Plant the wheat in rows, The barley in the appointed place, And the spelt in its place?
For He instructs him in right judgment, His God teaches him.
For the black cummin is not threshed with a threshing sledge, Nor is a cartwheel rolled over the cummin; But the black cummin is beaten out with a stick, And the cummin with a rod.
Bread flour must be ground; Therefore he does not thresh it forever, Break it with his cartwheel, Or crush it with his horsemen.
This also comes from the Lord of hosts, Who is wonderful in counsel and excellent in guidance.
It is a time of trouble to the crown of pride and to the drunk men of Ephraim, whose shining beauty is a dying flower. It is at the head of the rich valley of those who have taken too much wine!
See, the Lord has one who is strong and powerful, like a storm of hail, a destroying storm. As with a flood of powerful waters flowing over, He will bring them down to the earth with His hand.
The crown of pride, the drunk men of Ephraim, will be crushed under foot.
The dying flower of its shining beauty which is at the head of the rich valley will be like the first fig grown before the summer. When one sees it, he takes it in his hand and eats it.
In that day the Lord of All will be a crown of shining-greatness, a beautiful crown to those who are left of His people.
He will be a spirit of what is fair to him who judges the people. He will be a strength to those who turn back the battle at the gate.
These also walk from one side to the other side because of wine and strong drink. The religious leaders and the men who tell what will happen in the future make mistakes because of strong drink. They are troubled by wine. They walk from side to side because of strong drink. They make mistakes as they have special dreams. And they make mistakes when judging between right and wrong.
All the tables are covered with what they have spit up. There is no place that is clean.
“Who is it He is trying to teach? To whom will He tell what He has to say? Children finished with their nursing and just taken from the breast?
For He says, ‘Law on law, law on law, rule on rule, rule on rule, a little here, a little there.’”
The Lord will speak to these people through men from other lands and in strange languages.
He Who said to them, “This is rest, give rest to the tired and weak.” And, “This is the place to rest,” but they would not listen.
So the Word of the Lord to them will be, “Law on law, law on law, rule on rule, rule on rule, a little here, a little there,” that they may go and fall back, be broken, trapped, and taken away by those who hate them.
So hear the Word of the Lord, you who laugh at the truth, who rule the people in Jerusalem!
You have said, “We have made an agreement with death. With the place of the dead we have made an agreement. The destroying flood will not touch us when it passes by. We have made lies our safe place. We have hidden ourselves with what is false.”
So the Lord God says, “See, I lay in Jerusalem a Stone of great worth to build upon, a tested Stone. Anyone who puts his trust in Him will not be afraid of what will happen.
And I will use what is fair to decide about the base. And I will use what is right and good to make it straight. Then hail will take away all the lies you depend on, and the waters will flow over the place where you hide.
Your agreement with death will come to an end. Your agreement with the place of the dead will be stopped. When a flood of trouble passes through, you will be beaten down by it.
As often as it passes through, it will take you. And it will pass through morning after morning, anytime during the day or night. To understand what it means will bring much fear.”
The bed is too short to lie on in comfort. And the covering is too small to put around yourself.
For the Lord will rise up as at Mount Perazim. He will be angry as in the valley of Gibeon, to do what He needs to do, His strange act, and to do His work, His different kind of work.
So now do not laugh, or your chains will be made stronger. I have heard that the Lord God of All plans to destroy the whole earth.
Listen and hear my voice. Listen and hear my words.
Does the farmer plow all the time to plant seed? Does he keep on turning and digging up the ground?
When he gets the ground ready to plant, does he not sow dill seeds and cummin seeds and wheat in rows? Does he not put barley in its place, and rye in the right place?
For his God tells him what to do and teaches him the right way.
Dill is not crushed with a crushing object. And the wagon wheel is not rolled over cummin. But dill is beaten out with a stick, and cummin with a heavy stick.
Grain for bread is crushed. He does not keep on crushing it forever. When he drives his wagon-wheel over it with his horses, it does not crush it.
This also comes from the Lord of All, Who has given wonderful wise words and great wisdom.
What sorrow awaits the proud city of Samaria— the glorious crown of the drunks of Israel. It sits at the head of a fertile valley, but its glorious beauty will fade like a flower. It is the pride of a people brought down by wine.
For the Lord will send a mighty army against it. Like a mighty hailstorm and a torrential rain, they will burst upon it like a surging flood and smash it to the ground.
The proud city of Samaria— the glorious crown of the drunks of Israel— will be trampled beneath its enemies’ feet.
It sits at the head of a fertile valley, but its glorious beauty will fade like a flower. Whoever sees it will snatch it up, as an early fig is quickly picked and eaten.
Then at last the Lord of Heaven’s Armies will himself be Israel’s glorious crown. He will be the pride and joy of the remnant of his people.
He will give a longing for justice to their judges. He will give great courage to their warriors who stand at the gates.
Now, however, Israel is led by drunks who reel with wine and stagger with alcohol. The priests and prophets stagger with alcohol and lose themselves in wine. They reel when they see visions and stagger as they render decisions.
Their tables are covered with vomit; filth is everywhere.
“Who does the Lord think we are?” they ask. “Why does he speak to us like this? Are we little children, just recently weaned?
He tells us everything over and over— one line at a time, one line at a time, a little here, and a little there!”
So now God will have to speak to his people through foreign oppressors who speak a strange language!
God has told his people, “Here is a place of rest; let the weary rest here. This is a place of quiet rest.” But they would not listen.
So the Lord will spell out his message for them again, one line at a time, one line at a time, a little here, and a little there, so that they will stumble and fall. They will be injured, trapped, and captured.
Therefore, listen to this message from the Lord, you scoffing rulers in Jerusalem.
You boast, “We have struck a bargain to cheat death and have made a deal to dodge the grave. The coming destruction can never touch us, for we have built a strong refuge made of lies and deception.”
Therefore, this is what the Sovereign Lord says: “Look! I am placing a foundation stone in Jerusalem, a firm and tested stone. It is a precious cornerstone that is safe to build on. Whoever believes need never be shaken.
I will test you with the measuring line of justice and the plumb line of righteousness. Since your refuge is made of lies, a hailstorm will knock it down. Since it is made of deception, a flood will sweep it away.
I will cancel the bargain you made to cheat death, and I will overturn your deal to dodge the grave. When the terrible enemy sweeps through, you will be trampled into the ground.
Again and again that flood will come, morning after morning, day and night, until you are carried away.” This message will bring terror to your people.
The bed you have made is too short to lie on. The blankets are too narrow to cover you.
The Lord will come as he did against the Philistines at Mount Perazim and against the Amorites at Gibeon. He will come to do a strange thing; he will come to do an unusual deed:
For the Lord, the Lord of Heaven’s Armies, has plainly said that he is determined to crush the whole land. So scoff no more, or your punishment will be even greater.
Listen to me; listen, and pay close attention.
Does a farmer always plow and never sow? Is he forever cultivating the soil and never planting?
Does he not finally plant his seeds— black cumin, cumin, wheat, barley, and emmer wheat— each in its proper way, and each in its proper place?
The farmer knows just what to do, for God has given him understanding.
A heavy sledge is never used to thresh black cumin; rather, it is beaten with a light stick. A threshing wheel is never rolled on cumin; instead, it is beaten lightly with a flail.
Grain for bread is easily crushed, so he doesn’t keep on pounding it. He threshes it under the wheels of a cart, but he doesn’t pulverize it.
The Lord of Heaven’s Armies is a wonderful teacher, and he gives the farmer great wisdom.
Ah, the proud garland of the drunkards of Ephraim, and the fading flower of its glorious beauty, which is on the head of those bloated with rich food, of those overcome with wine!
See, the Lord has one who is mighty and strong; like a storm of hail, a destroying tempest, like a storm of mighty, overflowing waters; with his hand he will hurl them down to the earth.
Trampled under foot will be the proud garland of the drunkards of Ephraim.
And the fading flower of its glorious beauty, which is on the head of those bloated with rich food, will be like a first-ripe fig before the summer; whoever sees it, eats it up as soon as it comes to hand.
On that day the Lord of hosts will be a garland of glory, and a diadem of beauty, to the remnant of his people;
and a spirit of justice to the one who sits in judgement, and strength to those who turn back the battle at the gate.
These also reel with wine and stagger with strong drink; the priest and the prophet reel with strong drink, they are confused with wine, they stagger with strong drink; they err in vision, they stumble in giving judgement.
All tables are covered with filthy vomit; no place is clean.
‘Whom will he teach knowledge, and to whom will he explain the message? Those who are weaned from milk, those taken from the breast?
For it is precept upon precept, precept upon precept, line upon line, line upon line, here a little, there a little.’
Truly, with stammering lip and with alien tongue he will speak to this people,
to whom he has said, ‘This is rest; give rest to the weary; and this is repose’; yet they would not hear.
Therefore the word of the Lord will be to them, ‘Precept upon precept, precept upon precept, line upon line, line upon line, here a little, there a little’; in order that they may go, and fall backwards, and be broken, and snared, and taken.
Therefore hear the word of the Lord, you scoffers who rule this people in Jerusalem.
Because you have said, ‘We have made a covenant with death, and with Sheol we have an agreement; when the overwhelming scourge passes through it will not come to us; for we have made lies our refuge, and in falsehood we have taken shelter’;
therefore thus says the Lord God, See, I am laying in Zion a foundation stone, a tested stone, a precious cornerstone, a sure foundation: ‘One who trusts will not panic.’
And I will make justice the line, and righteousness the plummet; hail will sweep away the refuge of lies, and waters will overwhelm the shelter.
Then your covenant with death will be annulled, and your agreement with Sheol will not stand; when the overwhelming scourge passes through you will be beaten down by it.
As often as it passes through, it will take you; for morning by morning it will pass through, by day and by night; and it will be sheer terror to understand the message.
For the bed is too short to stretch oneself on it, and the covering too narrow to wrap oneself in it.
For the Lord will rise up as on Mount Perazim, he will rage as in the valley of Gibeon to do his deed—strange is his deed!— and to work his work—alien is his work!
Now therefore do not scoff, or your bonds will be made stronger; for I have heard a decree of destruction from the Lord God of hosts upon the whole land.
Listen, and hear my voice; Pay attention, and hear my speech.
Do those who plough for sowing plough continually? Do they continually open and harrow their ground?
When they have levelled its surface, do they not scatter dill, sow cummin, and plant wheat in rows and barley in its proper place, and spelt as the border?
For they are well instructed; their God teaches them.
Dill is not threshed with a threshing-sledge, nor is a cartwheel rolled over cummin; but dill is beaten out with a stick, and cummin with a rod.
Grain is crushed for bread, but one does not thresh it for ever; one drives the cartwheel and horses over it, but does not pulverize it.
This also comes from the Lord of hosts; he is wonderful in counsel, and excellent in wisdom.

These also reel with wine and stagger with strong drink; the priest and the prophet reel with strong drink, they are confused with wine, they stagger with strong drink; they err in vision, they stumble in giving judgment.
All tables are covered with filthy vomit; no place is clean.
“Whom will he teach knowledge, and to whom will he explain the message? Those who are weaned from milk, those taken from the breast?
For it is precept upon precept, precept upon precept, line upon line, line upon line, here a little, there a little.”
Truly, with stammering lip and with alien tongue he will speak to this people,
to whom he has said, “This is rest; give rest to the weary; and this is repose”; yet they would not hear.
Therefore the word of the Lord will be to them, “Precept upon precept, precept upon precept, line upon line, line upon line, here a little, there a little;” in order that they may go, and fall backward, and be broken, and snared, and taken.
Therefore hear the word of the Lord, you scoffers who rule this people in Jerusalem.
Because you have said, “We have made a covenant with death, and with Sheol we have an agreement; when the overwhelming scourge passes through it will not come to us; for we have made lies our refuge, and in falsehood we have taken shelter”;
therefore thus says the Lord God, See, I am laying in Zion a foundation stone, a tested stone, a precious cornerstone, a sure foundation: “One who trusts will not panic.”
And I will make justice the line, and righteousness the plummet; hail will sweep away the refuge of lies, and waters will overwhelm the shelter.
Then your covenant with death will be annulled, and your agreement with Sheol will not stand; when the overwhelming scourge passes through you will be beaten down by it.
As often as it passes through, it will take you; for morning by morning it will pass through, by day and by night; and it will be sheer terror to understand the message.
For the bed is too short to stretch oneself on it, and the covering too narrow to wrap oneself in it.
For the Lord will rise up as on Mount Perazim, he will rage as in the valley of Gibeon to do his deed—strange is his deed!— and to work his work—alien is his work!
Now therefore do not scoff, or your bonds will be made stronger; for I have heard a decree of destruction from the Lord God of hosts upon the whole land.
Listen, and hear my voice; Pay attention, and hear my speech.
Do those who plow for sowing plow continually? Do they continually open and harrow their ground?
When they have leveled its surface, do they not scatter dill, sow cummin, and plant wheat in rows and barley in its proper place, and spelt as the border?
For they are well instructed; their God teaches them.
Dill is not threshed with a threshing sledge, nor is a cart wheel rolled over cummin; but dill is beaten out with a stick, and cummin with a rod.
Grain is crushed for bread, but one does not thresh it forever; one drives the cart wheel and horses over it, but does not pulverize it.
This also comes from the Lord of hosts; he is wonderful in counsel, and excellent in wisdom.
Woe to the proud garland of the drunkards of Ephraim and the fading flower of its glorious beauty, at the head of the fertile valley, those overcome with wine!
See, the Lord has one who is mighty and strong, like a storm of hail, a destroying tempest, like a storm of mighty, overflowing waters; with force he will hurl them down to the earth.
Trampled under foot will be the proud garland of the drunkards of Ephraim.
And the fading flower of its glorious beauty, at the head of the fertile valley, will be like a first-ripe fig before the summer; whoever sees it eats it up as soon as it comes to hand.
On that day the Lord of hosts will be a garland of glory and a diadem of beauty to the remnant of his people
and a spirit of justice to the one who sits in judgment and strength to those who turn back the battle at the gate.
These also reel with wine and stagger with strong drink; the priest and the prophet reel with strong drink; they are confused with wine; they stagger with strong drink; they err in vision; they stumble in giving judgment.
All tables are covered with filthy vomit; no place is clean.
“Whom will he teach knowledge, and to whom will he explain the message? Those who are weaned from milk, those taken from the breast?
For it is precept upon precept, precept upon precept, line upon line, line upon line, here a little, there a little.”
Truly, with stammering lip and with another tongue he will speak to this people,
to whom he has said, “This is rest; give rest to the weary, and this is repose,” yet they would not hear.
Therefore the word of the Lord will be to them, “Precept upon precept, precept upon precept, line upon line, line upon line, here a little, there a little,” in order that they may go and fall backward and be broken and snared and taken.
Therefore hear the word of the Lord, you scoffers who rule this people in Jerusalem.

Hoy (woe, doom) to the ateret ge’ut (crown of pride), to the shikkorei Ephrayim (drunkards of Ephrayim), whose glorious beauty is a fading tzitz (flower), which are on the rosh of the verdant gey (valley) of them that are overcome with yayin!
Hinei, Adonoi hath one, chazak and strong, which as a tempest of barad (hail) and a destroying storm, as a flood of mighty mayim overflowing, shall cast them down to ha’aretz with the yad.
The ateret ge’ut (crown of pride), the shikkorei Ephrayim, shall be trodden under foot;
And the glorious beauty, which is at the rosh of the verdant gey, shall be a fading tzitz, and as the bikkurah (first ripe fruit) before kayitz (summer); which when he that looketh upon it seeth, while it is yet in his palm he eateth it up.
In that day shall Hashem Tzva’os be for an ateret of glory, and for a wreath tiferet, unto the remnant of His people,
And for a ruach mishpat to him that sitteth in mishpat, and for gevurah to them that turn back the milchamah at the gate.
But they also have gone astray through yayin, and through strong drink are out of the way; the kohen and the navi have erred through strong drink, they are swallowed up with yayin, they are out of the way through strong drink; they go astray from the vision, they stumble in rendering decisions.
For all shulchanot are full of vomit and filthiness, so that there is no makom (place) clean.
Whom shall He teach da’as? And whom shall He make to understand doctrine? Them that are just weaned from cholov, and just drawn from the breasts.
For precept must be upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; sham (here) a little, and sham (there) a little;
For with stammering safah (lips) and with lashon acheret (another tongue, different tongue) will He speak to HaAm Hazeh.
To whom He said, This is the menuchah (rest) wherewith ye may cause the weary to rest; and this is the refreshing; yet they would not hear.
But the Devar Hashem was unto them precept upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; sham a little, and sham a little; that they might go, and fall backward, and be broken, and snared, and taken [captive].
Therefore hear the Devar Hashem, ye scoffing anashim, that rule HaAm Hazeh which is in Yerushalayim.
Because ye have said, We have cut a brit with mavet, and with Sheol are we in agreement; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, it shall not come unto us; for we have made kazav our refuge, and under sheker have we hid ourselves;
Therefore thus saith Adonoi Hashem, Hineni, I lay in Tziyon for a foundation an even (stone), an even bochan (a tried stone), a pinnat yikrat (precious cornerstone), a sure foundation; the ma’amin (believer) shall not panic.
Mishpat also will I make as the measuring line, and tzedakah to be the plumbline; and the barad shall sweep away the refuge of kazav, and the mayim shall overflow the hiding place.
And your brit (covenant) with mavet shall be annulled, and your agreement with Sheol shall not stand; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, then ye shall be trodden down by it.
As often as it goeth forth it shall seize you; for boker by boker shall it pass over, by day and by night; and it shall be a terror just to understand the message.
For the matztza (bed, mattress) is shorter than one can stretch himself on it; and the blanket narrower than that he can wrap himself in.
For Hashem shall rise up as in Har Peratzim, He shall be in wrath as in the valley of Giveon, that He may do His ma’aseh, His zar ma’aseh (strange work, foreign work); and bring to pass His avodah, His nochriyah avodah.
Now therefore be ye not mockers, lest your chains be made chazak; for I have heard from Adonoi Hashem Tzva’os a destruction, even determined upon kol ha’aretz (the whole earth).
Give ye ozen, and hear my voice; pay heed, and hear my speech.
Doth the plowman plow kol hayom to sow? Doth he keep turning and breaking the clods of his adamah?
When he hath made level the surface thereof, doth he not sow the dill, and scatter the cumin, and plant in rows the chittah (wheat) and the se’orah (barley) in the appointed place, and the spelt in their place?
For Elohav doth instruct him, and doth teach him properly.
For the dill is not threshed with a threshing sledge, neither is an ofan agalah (cart wheel) rolled about upon the cumin; but the dill is beaten out with a rod, and the cumin with a club.
Grain for lechem must be ground; because he will not ever be threshing it, nor break it with the gilgal (wheel) of his agalah (cart, wagon), nor grind it with his parash.
This also cometh forth from Hashem Tzva’os, Who is wonderful in etzah, and excellent in wisdom.
Woe to the crown of pride, the drunkards of Ephraim. For his glorious beauty shall be as a fading flower upon the head of the valley of fatness to those who are overcome with wine.
Behold, the LORD has a mighty and strong one, like a tempest of hail, a whirlwind that overthrows, like a tempest of mighty waters that overflow, which throw to the ground mightily.
They shall be trampled underfoot: the crown, the pride of the drunkards of Ephraim.
For his glorious beauty shall be as a fading flower upon the head of the valley of fatness, as the first fruits before Summer. When one has looked upon it, he sees it. And while it is in his hand, he eats it.
On that day, shall the LORD of Hosts be for a crown of glory, and for a diadem of beauty, to the residue of His people,
and for a spirit of judgment to him who sits in judgment, and for strength to those who turn away the battle at the gate.
But they have erred because of wine and are out of the way due to strong drink. The priest and the prophet have erred by strong drink. They are swallowed up with wine. They have gone astray through strong drink. They fail in vision. They stumble in judgment.
For all their tables are full of filthy vomiting. No place is clean.
To whom shall he teach knowledge? And whom shall he make understand the things that he hears? Those who are weaned from the milk drawn from the breasts.
For “precept upon precept, precept upon precept, line upon line, line upon line, here a little, there a little.”
For with a stammering tongue and with a strange language he shall speak to this people,
to whom He said, “This is the rest: give rest to him who is weary.” And, “This is the refreshing.” But they would not hear.
Therefore shall the Word of the LORD be to them “precept upon precept, precept upon precept, line unto line, line unto line, here a little, there a little”, so that they may go and fall backward and be broken and be snared and be taken.
Therefore, hear the Word of the LORD, you scornful men who rule this people who are at Jerusalem,
because you have said, “We have made a covenant with death, and with Hell are we in agreement. Though a scourge run over and pass through, it shall not come at us, for we have made falsehood our refuge, and under vanity are we hidden.”
Therefore, thus says the LORD God: “Behold, I will lay a stone in Zion, a tried stone, a precious cornerstone, a sure foundation. He who believes shall not hurry.
“I will also lay judgment to the rule, and righteousness to the balance. And the hail shall sweep away the vain confidence. And the waters shall overflow the secret place.
“And your covenant with death shall be annulled, and your agreement with hell shall not stand. When a scourge shall run over and pass through, then shall you be trampled down by it.
“When it passes over, it shall take you away. For it shall pass through every morning, in the day and in the night. And there shall be only fear to make you understand the hearing.”
For the bed is so short that it cannot suffice, and the covering so narrow that one cannot wrap himself.
For the LORD shall stand, as on Mount Perazim. He shall be angry, as in the Valley of Gibeon, so that He may do His work (His strange work) and bring to pass His act (His strange act).
Now, therefore, do not be mockers, lest your bonds increase. For I have heard the LORD of Hosts has determined a consumption upon the whole Earth.
Listen and hear my voice! Listen and hear my speech!
Does the plowman plow all day to sow? Does he open and break the clots of his ground?
When he has made it level, will he not then sow the black cumin, and sow cumin, and cast in wheat by measure, and the appointed barley and rye in their place?
For his God instructs him to have discretion, teaches him.
For black cumin shall not be threshed with a threshing instrument, nor shall a cartwheel be turned upon the cumin. But the black cumin is beaten out with a staff, and cumin with a rod.
Bread (when it is threshed) he does not always thresh, nor does the wheel of his cart make a noise, nor will he break it with its teeth.
This also comes from the LORD of Hosts, Who is wonderful in counsel, excellent in works.
Woe to the proud crown of the drunkards of E′phraim, and to the fading flower of its glorious beauty, which is on the head of the rich valley of those overcome with wine!
Behold, the Lord has one who is mighty and strong; like a storm of hail, a destroying tempest, like a storm of mighty, overflowing waters, he will cast down to the earth with violence.
The proud crown of the drunkards of E′phraim will be trodden under foot;
and the fading flower of its glorious beauty, which is on the head of the rich valley, will be like a first-ripe fig before the summer: when a man sees it, he eats it up as soon as it is in his hand.
In that day the Lord of hosts will be a crown of glory, and a diadem of beauty, to the remnant of his people;
and a spirit of justice to him who sits in judgment, and strength to those who turn back the battle at the gate.
These also reel with wine and stagger with strong drink; the priest and the prophet reel with strong drink, they are confused with wine, they stagger with strong drink; they err in vision, they stumble in giving judgment.
For all tables are full of vomit, no place is without filthiness.
“Whom will he teach knowledge, and to whom will he explain the message? Those who are weaned from the milk, those taken from the breast?
For it is precept upon precept, precept upon precept, line upon line, line upon line, here a little, there a little.”
Nay, but by men of strange lips and with an alien tongue the Lord will speak to this people,
to whom he has said, “This is rest; give rest to the weary; and this is repose”; yet they would not hear.
Therefore the word of the Lord will be to them precept upon precept, precept upon precept, line upon line, line upon line, here a little, there a little; that they may go, and fall backward, and be broken, and snared, and taken.
Therefore hear the word of the Lord, you scoffers, who rule this people in Jerusalem!
Because you have said, “We have made a covenant with death, and with Sheol we have an agreement; when the overwhelming scourge passes through it will not come to us; for we have made lies our refuge, and in falsehood we have taken shelter”;
therefore thus says the Lord God, “Behold, I am laying in Zion for a foundation a stone, a tested stone, a precious cornerstone, of a sure foundation: ‘He who believes will not be in haste.’
And I will make justice the line, and righteousness the plummet; and hail will sweep away the refuge of lies, and waters will overwhelm the shelter.”
Then your covenant with death will be annulled, and your agreement with Sheol will not stand; when the overwhelming scourge passes through you will be beaten down by it.
As often as it passes through it will take you; for morning by morning it will pass through, by day and by night; and it will be sheer terror to understand the message.
For the bed is too short to stretch oneself on it, and the covering too narrow to wrap oneself in it.
For the Lord will rise up as on Mount Pera′zim, he will be wroth as in the valley of Gibeon; to do his deed—strange is his deed! and to work his work—alien is his work!
Now therefore do not scoff, lest your bonds be made strong; for I have heard a decree of destruction from the Lord God of hosts upon the whole land.
Give ear, and hear my voice; hearken, and hear my speech.
Does he who plows for sowing plow continually? does he continually open and harrow his ground?
When he has leveled its surface, does he not scatter dill, sow cummin, and put in wheat in rows and barley in its proper place, and spelt as the border?
For he is instructed aright; his God teaches him.
Dill is not threshed with a threshing sledge, nor is a cart wheel rolled over cummin; but dill is beaten out with a stick, and cummin with a rod.
Does one crush bread grain? No, he does not thresh it for ever; when he drives his cart wheel over it with his horses, he does not crush it.
This also comes from the Lord of hosts; he is wonderful in counsel, and excellent in wisdom.
Woe to the proud crown of the drunkards of E′phraim, and to the fading flower of its glorious beauty, which is on the head of the rich valley of those overcome with wine!

Does he who plows for sowing plow continually? does he continually open and harrow his ground?
When he has leveled its surface, does he not scatter dill, sow cummin, and put in wheat in rows and barley in its proper place, and spelt as the border?
For he is instructed aright; his God teaches him.
Dill is not threshed with a threshing sledge, nor is a cart wheel rolled over cummin; but dill is beaten out with a stick, and cummin with a rod.

Oy, the proud crown of Ephraim’s drunks! Its glorious beauty is a fading flower, which is at the head of the fertile valleys of those overcome with wine!
Behold, Adonai is strong and mighty, like a hailstorm, a destructive tempest, like a downpour of overflowing water, He hurls it down to earth with His hand.
The proud crown of Ephraim’s drunks will be trampled underfoot.
The glorious beauty is a fading flower which is at the head of the fertile valley, like a first-ripe fig before summer— whoever sees it, swallows it up while it is still in his palm.
In that day Adonai-Tzva’ot will be a crown of glory, a diadem of beauty to the remnant of His people,
a spirit of judgment for him who sits on the judgment seat, and strength for those turning back the battle at the gate.
But these also reel from wine and stagger from strong drink —the kohen and the prophet reel from strong drink— are confused because of wine, they stagger because of strong drink, they are muddled in vision, they stumble in judgment.
Since all the tables are full of the filth of vomit, no place is left.
To whom will He teach knowledge? To whom will He explain the message? Those just weaned from milk? Those just taken from the breast?
For it must be ‘precept upon precept, precept upon precept, line upon line, line upon line, here a little, there a little.’
For through stammering lips and a foreign tongue He will speak to this people,
To whom He said, “Here is rest, give rest to the weary, here is repose”—but they would not listen.
So the word of Adonai is to them ‘precept on precept, precept on precept, line upon line, line upon line, here a little, there a little.’ So they walk, and fall backward, and are broken, trapped, and captured.
Therefore hear the word of Adonai, you scoffers, who rule this people who are in Jerusalem:
“Because you have said, ‘We cut a covenant with death, we made a pact with Sheol, so when the overflowing scourge passes through, it won’t come for us, for we have made lies our refuge, and hid ourselves in falsehood’—
Therefore thus says Adonai Elohim: ‘Behold, I am laying in Zion a stone, a tested stone, a costly cornerstone, a firm foundation— whoever trusts will not flee in haste.
But I will make justice the measuring line and righteousness the plumb line. Hail will sweep away the refuge of lies, and water will overflow the hiding place.
Your covenant with death is annulled, and your pact with Sheol will not stand. An overflowing scourge will pass through and you will be its trampling place.
As often as it passes through, it will seize you— morning by morning, by day and by night passing through. It will be sheer terror to understand the message.’”
For too short is the bed to stretch on, too narrow the blanket to wrap up in.
For Adonai will rise up as at Mount Perazim, He will quake with awe as at the valley of Gibeon, to do His deed, His strange deed, and to work His work, His extraordinary work.
So now, stop your scoffing, lest your shackles be strengthened! For I have heard from Adonai Elohei-Tzva’ot of destruction determined upon the whole land.
Give ear and hear my voice! Pay attention and hear my words.
Does a plowman plow all day to sow the seed? Does he continually break open and harrow his ground?
No! When he has leveled its surface, he scatters dill and sows cumin, plants wheat in rows, places barley, and rye on its border.
For his God teaches him judgment, instructing him.
For dill is not threshed with a sledge, nor is a cart wheel rolled over cumin. Rather, dill is beaten out with a staff, and cumin with a rod.
Bread grain is crushed, but not endlessly. Rumbling cart wheels and horses over it would only crush it to powder.
This also comes from Adonai-Tzva’ot: Wonderful is His counsel, great is His wisdom.
Oh, it will be bad for you drunkards of Ephraim. That once proud elegance of yours Now droops and falls like a fading flower. You leaders of the fertile valley are now drowning in your own wine.
Look well—the Eternal has called up one who is fierce and mighty. Like a powerful hailstorm followed by destructive winds, Like a storm that spawns devastating floods, God’s agent will drive Ephraim down and smash him to earth.
Then the tarnished elegance of intoxicated Ephraim will lie trampled in the dirt.
And the fading flower of its glorious beauty that crowned Ephraim’s fertile valley Will be snatched up and consumed as soon as someone sees it, like the first ripened fig before summer.
In that day the Eternal, Commander of heavenly armies, will be a beautiful crown, a glorious diadem, for His people who survive.
He will be a spirit of justice to those who sit in judgment and a source of strength to those who battle at the gate.
Ah, what contrast to the drunken and bumbling priests and prophets who can’t even see straight, whose minds are addled, Whose steps wobble, whose visions mislead, whose judgments waver, because of all their drinking.
There’s vomit on all of the tables, filth all over the place.
The priests and prophets mock: “Who is left for God to instruct in knowledge? Who will listen and understand His message? Maybe those infants just weaned off of milk, those innocents just taken from the breast?
For here is how it goes: Command after command. Command on top of command. Rule after rule. Rule on top of rule. A little here, A little there.”
For now that God’s people reject His message, He will speak to them through the stammering lips And foreign language of an invader.
Eternal One: This is the way: here is rest for the weary. I am showing you rest. But they wouldn’t listen to Him.
And so the word of the Eternal One to them will be just as they said: “Command after command. Command on top of command. Rule after rule. Rule on top of rule. A little here, a little there.” But they’ll go and fail. They’ll fall back, broken and trapped, and be taken away by another people.
Let this be a warning, the Eternal’s word to you sarcastic jokesters, you leaders in Jerusalem.
For you have made an audacious claim: Leaders: We have made a pact with death; we’ve made a deal with the grave. When the scourge of disease and doom comes our way, they won’t touch us. Death and the grave will pass us by for our fraud disguises us, and deception is our shield.
So the Lord, the Eternal, has this to say: Eternal One: See here, I am laying in Zion a stone, a tested stone— a cornerstone, chosen and precious—for a firm foundation. Whoever trusts in it will never be disgraced.
Justice will be the line by which I lay out its floor plan, and righteousness will be My leveling tool. A hailstorm will pulverize and wash away the fraud and deception behind which people hide, and floodwaters will overrun their hiding place.
Then your pact with death and the grave will be annulled. When the scourge that you fear comes along, It will find you and pummel you down.
Whenever it does come your way, it will grab you. It could be anytime—morning, noon, or night. To fathom its message will be sheer terror.
The bed is too short to stretch out and the blanket is too small for you to hide in or pretend you are not here.
For the Eternal will stand as He did at Mount Perazim and shake it all up as He did in Gibeon Valley, To accomplish whatever it is that God wills to accomplish— strange deeds indeed.
So don’t keep laughing it off, or your chains will be made even stronger. For I heard from the Lord, the Eternal, Commander of heavenly armies, that an absolute end has been determined for the whole earth.
Pay attention! Listen well; take care to hear my words.
Does a farmer constantly plow and turn the soil to plant his seed? No, of course not.
When he’s leveled and tilled the soil, doesn’t he plant each seed according to its specifications? He scatters the dill, sows the cummin, plants the wheat in rows, puts barley and spelt where they grow best.
God instructs and directs the farmer in how best to manage the land.
For dill isn’t threshed with a sledge, and you don’t roll a cart over the cummin. Dill is properly beaten free with one kind of stick, and cummin with another.
Similarly, you have to grind grain to have flour for bread, but you don’t grind it endlessly. When the wheel on the cart and the horses go over the grain, you must be careful not to crush it.
The Eternal, Commander of heavenly armies, is the source of such wisdom. His advice is wonderful.
Woe to the crown of pride of the drunkards of Ephraim, and to the fading flower of his glorious beauty, which is on the head of the fertile valley of those who are overcome with wine!
Behold, the Lord has one who is mighty and strong. Like a storm of hail, a destroying storm, and like a storm of mighty waters overflowing, he will cast them down to the earth with his hand.
The crown of pride of the drunkards of Ephraim will be trodden under foot.
The fading flower of his glorious beauty, which is on the head of the fertile valley, shall be like the first-ripe fig before the summer, which someone picks and eats as soon as he sees it.
In that day, Yahweh of Armies will become a crown of glory and a diadem of beauty to the residue of his people,
and a spirit of justice to him who sits in judgment, and strength to those who turn back the battle at the gate.
They also reel with wine, and stagger with strong drink. The priest and the prophet reel with strong drink. They are swallowed up by wine. They stagger with strong drink. They err in vision. They stumble in judgment.
For all tables are completely full of filthy vomit and filthiness.
Whom will he teach knowledge? To whom will he explain the message? Those who are weaned from the milk, and drawn from the breasts?
For it is precept on precept, precept on precept; line on line, line on line; here a little, there a little.
But he will speak to this nation with stammering lips and in another language,
to whom he said, “This is the resting place. Give rest to the weary,” and “This is the refreshing;” yet they would not hear.
Therefore Yahweh’s word will be to them precept on precept, precept on precept; line on line, line on line; here a little, there a little; that they may go, fall backward, be broken, be snared, and be taken.
Therefore hear Yahweh’s word, you scoffers, that rule this people in Jerusalem:
“Because you have said, ‘We have made a covenant with death, and we are in agreement with Sheol. When the overflowing scourge passes through, it won’t come to us; for we have made lies our refuge, and we have hidden ourselves under falsehood.’”
Therefore the Lord Yahweh says, “Behold, I lay in Zion for a foundation a stone, a tried stone, a precious cornerstone of a sure foundation. He who believes shall not act hastily.
I will make justice the measuring line, and righteousness the plumb line. The hail will sweep away the refuge of lies, and the waters will overflow the hiding place.
Your covenant with death shall be annulled, and your agreement with Sheol shall not stand. When the overflowing scourge passes through, then you will be trampled down by it.
As often as it passes through, it will seize you; for morning by morning it will pass through, by day and by night; and it will be nothing but terror to understand the message.”
For the bed is too short to stretch out on, and the blanket is too narrow to wrap oneself in.
For Yahweh will rise up as on Mount Perazim. He will be angry as in the valley of Gibeon; that he may do his work, his unusual work, and bring to pass his act, his extraordinary act.
Now therefore don’t be scoffers, lest your bonds be made strong; for I have heard a decree of destruction from the Lord, Yahweh of Armies, on the whole earth.
Give ear, and hear my voice! Listen, and hear my speech!
Does he who plows to sow plow continually? Does he keep turning the soil and breaking the clods?
When he has leveled its surface, doesn’t he plant the dill, and scatter the cumin seed, and put in the wheat in rows, the barley in the appointed place, and the spelt in its place?
For his God instructs him in right judgment and teaches him.
For the dill isn’t threshed with a sharp instrument, neither is a cart wheel turned over the cumin; but the dill is beaten out with a stick, and the cumin with a rod.
Bread flour must be ground; so he will not always be threshing it. Although he drives the wheel of his threshing cart over it, his horses don’t grind it.
This also comes out from Yahweh of Armies, who is wonderful in counsel, and excellent in wisdom.
Woe to the crown of pride, to the drunken men of Ephraim, and to the flower falling down of the glory of the full out joying thereof, that were in the top of the fattest valley, and erred of wine. (Woe to the crown of pride of the drunken men of Ephraim, and to the declining glory, or the diminishing beauty, of the revellers’ flowers, that were on the fat, or the proud, heads, of those who wandered about because of the wine.)
Lo! the mighty and strong Lord, as the fierceness of hail, and whirlwind breaking together, as the fierceness of many waters (over)flowing, and sent out on a large land. (Lo! the Lord hath someone strong and mighty, like the fierceness of the hail, and like the fierceness of the whirlwind that altogether breaketh up, and like the fierceness of many waters overflowing, whom he shall send out upon the large, or the broad, land.)
The crown of pride of the drunken men of Ephraim shall be defouled with feet, (The crown of pride of the drunken men of Ephraim shall be defiled underfoot,)
and the flower of [the] glory of the full out joying of him, that is on the top of the valley of fat things, shall be falling down, as a timely thing before the ripeness of harvest; which when a man seeing beholdeth, anon as he taketh with hand, he shall devour it. (and the glory, or the beauty, of the flowers, that were on the fat, or on the proud, heads of the revellers, shall decline, or shall diminish, like a timely thing before the ripeness of the harvest, which when a person seeing beholdeth, as soon as he taketh hold of it with his hand, he shall devour it.)
In that day the Lord of hosts shall be a crown of glory, and a garland of full out joying, to the residue of his people; (On that day the Lord of hosts shall be a crown of glory, and a beautiful garland, for the remnant of his people;)
and a spirit of doom to him that sitteth on the throne, and strength to them that turn again from [the] battle to the gate. (and a spirit of justice, or of judgement, for him who sitteth upon the throne, and strength to them who return from the battle at the gate.)
But also they knew not for wine, and erred for drunkenness; the priest and (the) prophet knew not for drunkenness; they were sopped up of wine, they erred in drunkenness; they knew not a prophet, they knew not doom. (But they also knew not because of the wine, and wandered about in drunkenness; yea, the priest and the prophet knew not because of drunkenness; they were swallowed up by wine, and so they wandered about in drunkenness, and they knew not prophecy, and they did not have good judgement.)
For why all (the) boards were filled with spewing and filths, so that there was no more place. (For all the tables were covered with vomit and filth, so that there was no clean place left.)
Whom shall he teach knowing, and whom shall he make to understand [the] hearing? Men weaned from milk, men drawn away from teats. (And so to whom shall he teach knowledge, and who shall he make understand the teaching? Those just weaned from milk, yea, those just drawn away from the breast!/?)
For why command thou, command thou again; command thou, command thou again; abide thou, abide thou again; abide thou, abide thou again; a little there, a little there (a little here, a little there).
For why in [the] speech of lip, and in other language, he shall speak to this people,
to which he said, This is my rest; refresh ye a weary man, and this is my refreshing; and they would not hear. (to whom he said, This is my rest; refresh ye all the weary, and this is my refreshing; but they would not listen to him.)
And the word of the Lord shall be to them, Send thou, send thou again; send thou, send thou again; abide thou, abide thou again; abide thou, abide thou again; a little there, a little there (a little here, a little there); (so) that they go, and fall backward, and be all-broken, and be snared, and be taken.
For this thing, ye men scorners, that be lords over my people which is in Jerusalem, hear the word of the Lord. (And so because of this, ye mockers, who be lords over my people who be in Jerusalem, hear the word of the Lord.)
For ye said, We have smitten a bond of peace with death, and we have made covenant with hell; a scourge (over)flowing, when it shall pass, shall not come [up]on us, for we have set a leasing our hope, and we be covered with a leasing. (For ye said, We have struck a covenant with death, and we have made a covenant with Sheol, that is, the land of the dead/and we have made a covenant with hell; an overflowing scourge, when it shall pass by, shall not come upon us, for we have made a lie to be our hope, and we be covered with, or protected by, a lie.)
Therefore the Lord God saith these things, Lo! I shall send in the foundaments of Zion a cornerstone precious, proved, founded in the foundament; he that believeth, shall not hasten. (And so the Lord God saith these things, Lo! I shall put in the foundation of Zion a precious cornerstone, proved, and laid in the foundation; he who believeth shall not be in haste, but shall be patient, or shall be steadfast.)
And I shall set doom in weight, and rightfulness in measure; and hail shall destroy the hope of leasing, and waters shall (over)flow on (your) protection. (And I shall put justice in weights, and righteousness in measures; and hail shall destroy the hope of lies, and water shall overflow your protection.)
And your bond of peace with death shall be done away, and your covenant with hell shall not stand; when the scourge (over)flowing shall pass, ye shall be to it into defouling. (And your covenant with death shall be done away, and your covenant with Sheol, or the land of the dead, shall not stand/and your covenant with hell shall not stand; when the overflowing scourge shall pass by, ye shall be defiled by it.)
Whenever it shall pass, it shall take away you (And when it shall pass by you, it shall take you away); for why early in the gray morrowtide it shall pass (by), (and) in day and night; and only travail alone shall give understanding to [the] hearing.
Forsooth the bed is strait, so that the tother fall down; and a short mantle shall not cover ever either. (For the bed is too short, so that no one can stretch out on it; and the blanket is too small, so that no one can be covered by it.)
For as in the hill of partings the Lord shall stand, as in the valley, which is in Gibeon, he shall be wroth, that he do his work; his work alien, that he work his work; his work is strange from him. (For the Lord shall stand, as he did at Mount Perazim, and he shall be angry, as he was in the Valley of Gibeon; so that he do his work, his strange work; yea, that he work his work, his strange work.)
And now do not ye scorn, lest peradventure your bonds be made strait together; for I heard of the Lord God of hosts, ending and abridging on all (the) earth. (And now do not ye mock, lest peradventure your bonds be made altogether strait, or tight; for I have heard from the Lord God of hosts, of the ending and the shortening, or destruction, of all the earth.)
Perceive ye with ears, and hear ye my voice; perceive ye, and hear ye my speech. (Listen, and hear ye my voice; pay attention, yea, listen to me!)
Whether he that eareth, shall ear all day, for to sow, and shall he carve (up), and purge his land? (Shall he who ploweth, plow every day, in order to sow, and to furrow, and to purge his land?)
Whether when he hath made even the face thereof, shall he not sow gith, and sprinkle abroad cummin? and he shall not set wheat by order, and barley, and millet, and fitches in his coasts? (Or rather, when he hath smoothed, or leveled, its surface, shall he not sow gith, and sprinkle abroad cummin? and shall he not put in, by order, wheat, and barley, and millet, and fitches, in all his fields?)
And his God shall teach him, in doom he shall teach him. (And his God shall teach him, yea, he shall teach him good judgement.)
Forsooth (the) gith shall not be threshed in saws, and a wheel of a wain shall not compass on [the] cummin (For the gith shall not be threshed with saws, and the wheel of a wagon shall not roll over, or grind down, the cummin); but (the) gith shall be beaten out with a rod, and [the] cummin with a staff.
Soothly bread shall be made less, but he that thresheth shall not thresh it without end, neither shall travail it with a wheel of a wain, neither shall make it less with his claws. (And the corn shall be crushed, but he who thresheth it shall not thresh it out forever, nor shall he grind it down with the wheel of a wagon, nor shall he make it fine with his horses’ hooves.)
And this thing went out of the Lord God of hosts, that he should make wonderful counsel, and magnify rightfulness. (And this word went out from the Lord God of hosts, whose counsel is wonderful, and whose rightfulness is great.)
Wo [to] the proud crown of the drunkards of Ephraim. And the fading flower of the beauty of his glory, That [is] on the head of the fat valley of the broken down of wine.
Lo, a mighty and strong one [is] to the Lord, As a storm of hail -- a destructive shower, As an inundation of mighty waters overflowing, He cast down to the earth with the hand.
By feet trodden down is the proud crown of the drunkards of Ephraim,
And the fading flower of the beauty of his glory That [is] on the head of the fat valley, Hath been as its first-fruit before summer, That its beholder seeth, While it [is] yet in his hand he swalloweth it.
In that day is Jehovah of Hosts For a crown of beauty, and for a diadem of glory, To the remnant of His people.
And for a spirit of judgment To him who is sitting in the judgment, And for might [to] those turning back the battle to the gate.
And even these through wine have erred, And through strong drink have wandered, Priest and prophet erred through strong drink, They have been swallowed up of the wine, They wandered because of the strong drink, They have erred in seeing, They have stumbled judicially.
For all tables have been full of vomit, Filth -- without place!
By whom doth He teach knowledge? And by whom doth He cause to understand the report? The weaned from milk, the removed from breasts,
For rule [is] on rule, rule on rule, line on line, line on line, A little here, a little there,
For by scorned lip, and by another tongue, Doth He speak unto this people.
Unto whom He hath said, `This [is] the rest, give ye rest to the weary, And this -- the refreshing:' And they have not been willing to hear,
And to whom a word of Jehovah hath been, Rule on rule, rule on rule, line on line, line on line, A little here, a little there, So that they go and have stumbled backward, And been broken, and snared, and captured.
Therefore, hear a word of Jehovah, ye men of scorning, Ruling this people that [is] in Jerusalem.
Because ye have said: `We have made a covenant with death, And with Sheol we have made a provision, An overflowing scourge, when it passeth over, Doth not meet us, Though we have made a lie our refuge, And in falsehood have been hidden.'
Therefore, thus said the Lord Jehovah: `Lo, I am laying a foundation in Zion, A stone -- a tried stone, a corner stone precious, a settled foundation, He who is believing doth not make haste.
And I have put judgment for a line, And righteousness for a plummet, And sweep away doth hail the refuge of lies, And the secret hiding-place do waters overflow.
And disannulled hath been your covenant with death, And your provision with Sheol doth not stand, An overflowing scourge, when it passeth over, Then ye have been to it for a treading-place.
From the fulness of its passing over it taketh you, For morning by morning it passeth over, By day and by night, And it hath been only a trembling to consider the report.
For shorter hath been the bed Than to stretch one's self out in, And the covering hath been narrower Than to wrap one's self up in.
For as [at] mount Perazim rise doth Jehovah, As [at] the valley in Gibeon He is troubled, To do His work -- strange [is] His work, And to do His deed -- strange [is] His deed.'
And now, show not yourselves scorners, Lest strong be your bands, For a consumption, that is determined, I have heard, by the Lord, Jehovah of Hosts, [Is] for all the land.
Give ear, and hear my voice, Attend, and hear my saying:
The whole day plougheth the ploughman to sow? He openeth and harroweth his ground!
Hath he not, if he have made level its face, Then scattered fitches, and cummin sprinkle, And hath placed the principal wheat, And the appointed barley, And the rie [in] its own border?
And instruct him for judgment doth his God, He doth direct him.
For not with a sharp-pointed thing threshed are fitches, And the wheel of a cart on cummin turned round, For with a staff beaten out are fitches, And cummin with a rod.
Bread-[corn] is beaten small, For not for ever doth he sorely thresh it, Nor crushed [it] hath a wheel of his cart, Nor do his hoofs beat it small.
Even this from Jehovah of Hosts hath gone out, He hath made counsel wonderful, He hath made wisdom great!
